Austin-Healey 100/6: The Ultimate Healey, Built for Purists and Drivers Alike You know the saying, “the lucky ones have hills.” Now picture this: it’s early morning in the mountains, the air is crisp, and in the distance you hear the deep, resonant growl of a straight-six coming to life. It passes by you—effortless, confident. And the car? An Austin-Healey 100/6. That’s no coincidence. It was, and remains, one of the most beloved British sports cars ever built. An Austin-Healey 100/6 is a pure machine — crafted with passion, refined with purpose, and meant to be driven. This is the Healey enthusiasts dream of. And this particular example? A true fast-tour special with tremendous character and highly desirable specifications. It features a BJ8-29K engine, BN7 gearbox, and 100/6 rear axle — a configuration long favored in historic racing circles. Add to that an almost fully aluminum body in excellent condition, and you begin to understand just how special this car is. For the True Connoisseur And the Driver This Healey comes from the collection of a genuine marque purist, someone who tuned, refined, and improved this car with meticulous care. Even the seats have been thoughtfully modified to comfortably accommodate drivers over 6 feet tall. Every detail was considered with one goal in mind: to make this Healey more engaging, more rewarding, and even more exhilarating to drive. Both the exterior and interior are beautifully presented, with elegant, well-preserved details throughout. Its service file and history are carefully documented, reflecting years of mechanical attention and passion. The result? A strong, mechanically sound car with crisp power delivery across the rev range. This is a 100/6 that will cruise at 90 mph with confidence — stable, reliable, and offering the kind of analog driving thrill modern cars simply cannot replicate. A Legend Among the “Big Healeys” The Austin-Healey 100-6 marked a turning point in sports-car evolution: – Longer wheelbase than the original 100 – Upgraded six-cylinder engine replacing the four-cylinder – Cleaner, more athletic design – DNA that would ultimately give rise to the legendary 3000 Produced from 1956 to 1959 in only 14,436 units, very few survive today in a condition and specification like this one. Contemporary road tests already hinted at its brilliance — but statistics only tell half the story. This car is emotion. And now, it’s legend. Interested?
