The Austin Healey 100-6, introduced in 1956, marked a significant evolution in the brandÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s line of British sports cars. As the successor to the Austin Healey 100, the 100-6 offered more power, a sleeker design, and improved overall refinement. This model also represents an important transition in the Austin Healey lineup, as it introduced a 6-cylinder engine, offering more performance and torque than its predecessorÃ¢â‚¬â„¢s 4-cylinder.

Under the hood, the 100-6 is powered by a 2.6-liter inline-six engine, borrowed from the Austin Westminster sedan, producing 117 horsepower. This engine gave the car a notable boost in performance, allowing it to reach a top speed of around 165km/h. Paired with a 4-speed manual gearbox (and an optional overdrive), the car offered a lively yet relaxed driving dynamic. The Austin Healey 100-6 bridged the gap between the early four-cylinder Healeys and the more powerful Austin Healey 3000 that followed.

This example presents well, being finished in blue over cream with 69769 miles indicated (105844km). It comes with a factory spare wheel, jack and factory tonneau cover to keep the interior fresh. Today, it remains a beloved classic, known for its combination of style, performance, and the charm that comes with open-air British motoring. Whether admired for its sleek looks or enjoyed for its engaging driving experience, the 100-6 continues to be an iconic symbol of the golden age of British sports cars.
