1955 Austin-Healey 100 BN1 100M specification for Sale in the Netherlands

This 1955 Austin-Healey 100 BN1 100M specification is a used car showing 68,623 km. It is equipped with a manual transmission. The car is finished in White and Blue with a Blue interior.

Built in October 1954 and first registered early in 1955, it is one of the first-series four-cylinder cars. It came to the Netherlands in 1997 and stayed with one owner for about twenty years, with invoices covering its upkeep since the late 1990s.

A few years ago it was stripped to bare metal and fully restored, and during the rebuild it was converted to 100M factory specification around its matching-numbers engine, with a modified rear axle besides the upgrades listed. Used only now and then since, it remains close to pristine in body, trim and mechanicals, and the restoration is fully documented.

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.

The Austin Healey 100/4 uses the 2,660 cc four-cylinder, taken from the Austin A90 saloon, rated at 90 PS (67 kW), 0 to 100 km/h in 11.2 seconds and 171 km/h, with 110 PS in the 100M, with a three-speed manual gearbox with overdrive on the upper two ratios, and rear-wheel drive.
