For sale is my 1959 Austin Healey Frogeye Sprite 948cc. I have owned this great little car for 9 years and I am only reluctantly selling due to lack of space. In the 9 years I have owned it it has never let me down.
Although not required, I have put it through an MOT every year under my ownership as did its previous owner (2005-2015) and I have all the valid certificates to show. I also have lots of its history including receipts dating back to 2005 that total nearly £5, 000. It is not in 'Pristine' condition, however I would say the condition is very good for its age.
The frogeye is largely original with just a handful of modern replacements.
Under my ownership I have only done minor maintenance on the car. I fitted a stainless steel exhaust and put some modern air filters on it. I keep in the basket some spare parts which fortunately I have never had to use! The frogeye was serviced last year where all the oils were drained overnight and refilled, new filters. All grease points greased.

Leather soft-top
Leather flat-cover
Detachable windows
Spare wheel
Spare parts (Clutch, spark plugs, distributor cap, hoses, ....

Please note - I am in no hurry to sell the frogeye so please don't waste both of our times if you are not genuinely interested and prepared to pay what its worth. As always it is sold on a sold as seen basis.
Viewings are welcome for genuine interest, open to sensible offers.
