Replacing the Original Austin Healey 100, the 100/6 was Introduced in August 1956, the New 6 Cylinder Healey Featured a Longer Wheelbase Allowing for 2+2 Seating, However Provided Disappointing Period Reviews, with the Early 6 Cylinder Engine Hampered by a Poor Cylinder Head Design, Resulting in Only 102bhp.

This Factory Right Hand Drive Austin Healey 100/6, was built on the 4th of September 1957 and Delivered New to Melbourne. A File accompanying the Healey lists the details of Maintenance Expenditure over a number of years as well as Owner’s Names and Dates of Ownership since its Original Purchase.

An Older Restoration, the BN4 now presents in a Classic Duo-Tone, of Red/Black with Black Upholstery. The Weather Equipment consists of a Soft-Top and Tonneau Cover both finished in Black Vinyl, With removable Sliding Perspex Side Screens.
