Seller's comments about 1960' Austin-Healey Sprite
A delightful example of the ever-popular Austin-Healey Sprite Mk I, this 1960 “Frogeye” Sprite is presented in the timeless and highly desirable combination of Old English White with a contrasting red vinyl interior, a specification that perfectly captures the charm and character of this iconic British sports car. Showing just 38, 772 miles, believed genuine, and with only four former keepers recorded, this Sprite has clearly been cherished throughout its life and remains an exceptionally appealing example. The car has been carefully maintained and sympathetically improved to enhance both usability and driving enjoyment. Uprated carburettors provide improved performance and throttle response from the lively A-Series engine, while upgraded headlights make the car notably more practical for modern road use. The Sprite presents extremely well overall, with a charming and honest character throughout, making it ideally suited to weekend touring, classic car events, or simply enjoyable open-top motoring. Accompanying the vehicle is an extensive history file containing a wealth of supporting documentation, further reflecting the care and attention this delightful Frogeye has received over the years.
