Auction description:
Lot n ° 18
Estimate: € 60,000 - € 80,000
1955 AUSTIN HEALEY 100/4 BN1L
"SERIAL NUMBER 156600 - ENGINE NUMBER 1B213606M
A REAL ENGLISH-LANGUAGE, ELEGANT AND SPORTY ROADSTER
ICONIC DRAWING OF GERRY COKER - LEFT DRIVE
FRENCH CARTE GRISE - MANY MAINTENANCE INVOICES
Our copy is in very good aesthetic condition with an almond green color and a matt black painted cover; direct evocation of the racing model of the time. Modifying his car to be as close as possible to the competition model was clearly the goal for the former owners of this Austin-Healey; for this, the bumpers were removed, grilles were installed on the front lights and long-range headlights were added to the grille. The interior remains original, with black upholstery and a black and gray dashboard. On the mechanical side, the 4 cylinder coupled to a 3-speed manual gearbox works pleasantly according to our road test. The overdrive works in 3rd gear and really provides flexibility at high revs. Quite atypical compared to the 3000s, this 100/4 will not leave any English roadster enthusiast indifferent. The various modifications carried out by the current owner give it the right balance between chic and sporty, enough to ride hair in the wind with maximum sensations.
