Opis

The Austin Ascot 12/4 is a charming example of British motoring from the mid-1930s, combining traditional craftsmanship with the practical engineering for which Austin was well known. Built by the Austin Motor Company, the Ascot was part of the Twelve range and was designed to provide comfortable, dependable transport for families and motorists who wanted something more substantial than Austin's smaller models. The 12/4 designation refers to its four-cylinder engine in the twelve-horsepower taxation class, reflecting the way British cars of the period were assessed for road tax. The engine provided adequate performance for the roads of the time, while the car's conventional rear-wheel-drive layout and sturdy chassis made it well suited to everyday driving. Styling was an important feature of the Ascot. Its flowing bodywork, upright radiator grille, separate wings and generous cabin gave it a distinctive pre-war appearance. Inside, the emphasis was on comfort and practicality, with a spacious interior and traditional materials that reflected the standards of the era. The Austin Ascot 12/4 is particularly appealing to enthusiasts of vintage and pre-war vehicles. Surviving examples are increasingly valued for their originality, character and connection to an important period in British automotive history. Driving one offers a very different experience from a modern car: controls require greater involvement, performance is modest, and the mechanical sounds are all part of the experience.

Owned by the vendor since 2014, this Austin presents well. Having covered a mere 2,342 during their stewardship, we are advised by the vendor that this Ascot 12/4 runs and drives well. It has been started and run regularly. This quintessentially British saloon car is supplied with a V5 registration document, handbook, maintenance manual, jack, wheel brace and starting handle. Whether preserved as a concours example, carefully restored, or maintained as a usable classic, the Austin Ascot 12/4 remains an evocative reminder of 1930's Britain. Its combination of elegant styling, straightforward engineering and unmistakable period character makes it a fascinating and rewarding vintage automobile. Where better to sell an Austin Ascot than Ascot! Consigned by Stewart Banks
