€85.000 --- Beautiful Austin Healey 100/6 from 1959 in Healey blue and white.

Exterior:

The Healey blue and white paint is in very good condition and so is the shiny chrome. The Healey comes with wire wheels, a tonneau cover and a dark blue soft-top that are all in very nice condition.

Interior:

The 100-6 was produced in two model designators, the 2+2 BN4 from 1956 onwards and the 2-seat BN6 in 1958–9. This model is the 2+2 BN4 where the (4!) seats are in very good condition with no signs of rips, tears or stains. Carpets are in good, clean condition. Interior gets a lovely touch with the wooden steering wheel, all the gauges also in working order.

Mechanics:

This Austin Healey is a very good driver powered by a 2639cc, inline 6-cylinder engine that produces 116 horsepower.

History:

The Austin-Healey 100-6 is a two-seat roadster that was announced in late September 1956[3] and produced from 1956 until 1959. A replacement for the Austin-Healey 100, it was followed by the Austin-Healey 3000; together, the three models have become known as the Big Healeys.

The 100-6 featured a 2 in (50.8 mm) longer wheelbase than the 100, a more powerful straight-six engine in place of its slightly larger inline-four, and added two occasional seats (which later became optional). The body lines were slightly streamlined, a smaller, wider radiator grille placed lower, an air scoop was added to the bonnet, and the windscreen fixed.
