1954 AUSTIN HEALEY 100/4 BN1 Series: BN1L226137 Matching Numbers Certificate British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Very nice configuration French registration 53 000 / 60 000€ The "100" originally took its name from Donald Healey's goal of reaching 100 mph (160 km/h) with his new creation. In retrospect, it became the 100/4 to differentiate it from the 100/6 that followed. The brainchild of Donald Healey, the Austin-Healey 100 was equipped with Austin mechanical components, including the sturdy 2.6-liter four-cylinder from the A90 Atlantic. The particularly attractive design, a kind of archetypal British roadster, was the brainchild of Gerry Coker, and served as the basis for the entire line of "big Healey" cars that ended their careers with a 3-liter engine. Today, the 100 is considered to be the sportiest of the series: its more rustic appearance, four drums and unsophisticated mechanics with plenty of low-end torque make it an uncompromising machine. It's also capable of excellent performance, as demonstrated by its results in competition. The model we're presenting is a 100/4 type BN1 with its original engine and Matching Numbers, delivered new in California. White and red in color, the car was entirely restored in California, a state it never left until its arrival in France. Today, the car is in good overall condition, the 100/4 folding windscreen is present, and the engine delivers good performance, as our test drive demonstrated. 1954 AUSTIN HEALEY 100/4 BN1 Series: BN1L226137 Matching Numbers British Motor Industry Heritage Trust certificate Very nice configuration French registration 50000/60000 The "100" originally took its name from Donald Healey's goal of reaching 100 mph (160 km/h) with his new creation.

1961 AUSTIN HEALEY Type: 3000 Serial number: DRF112401 French registration 35 000 / 40 000 € Introduced to the public in 1959, the Austin Healey 3000 is the descendant of a line of English roadsters imagined after the Second World War by Donald Healey with the aim of making affordable, elegant, high-performance convertibles. Initially powered by a four-cylinder engine under the hood of the Austin Healey 100/4, the roadster soon adopted an in-line six-cylinder engine developing almost three liters and 125 hp in its first version, earning it the nickname "Big Healey". Three versions of the Austin Healey 3000 followed until 1968, with the BJ8 offering very decent performance for its time. The model presented here was bought at auction from Osenat 18 years ago. Routine maintenance was carried out at the Garage de l'Orvanne in Ecuelles. The front and rear axles were overhauled in 2011 at Classic Garage in La Norville. They also rebuilt the brakes, radiator and miscellaneous for a total of €25,000, as well as rectifying the crankshaft and changing the bearings for almost €6,000. 1961 AUSTIN HEALEY Type: 3000 Serial number : DRF112401 French registration 35 000 / 40 000 € Introduced to the public in 1959, the Austin Healey 3000 is the descendant of a line of British roadsters designed after the Second World War by Donald Healey with the aim of producing affordable, elegant and high-performance convertibles.
