Signature Classics are delighted to present this exceptional 1956 Austin-Healey 100/ 4 M, one of only 160 factory-built examples produced and now upgraded to highly desirable 100/ 4 Le Mans specification.
Presented in outstanding condition throughout, this is a truly special example of one of the most iconic British sports cars of the 1950s. The bodywork, paint, chrome and brightwork are all beautifully presented, while the interior is equally impressive, showing just how well cared for this car has been over the years.
The Austin-Healey 100M is one of the most sought-after variants in the Healey range, combining rarity, performance and timeless styling. With only 160 examples built, opportunities to purchase one are few and far between, particularly one presented to this standard.
This car benefits from the desirable Le Mans specification upgrades, giving it both enhanced performance and a more purposeful character. Technical highlights include:

Reprofiled camshaft
High-compression pistons
Special inlet manifolds
