Description

Loved and maintained in dry South Africa so there is no rust. It was restored over several years and had a comprehensive mechanical overhaul. Very low mileage.

The Austin-Healey Sprite Mk1 "Frogeye" is an iconic British sports car that captured hearts with its diminutive size, nimble handling, and the distinctive upright headlights that give it its name.

Bought in July 2018 and we kept in a professional classic car storage space in Cape Town to the UK this month. This beautiful classic car has had very little use since the restoration. It has a British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate.

Tonneau cover
Miles-per-hour speedometer
Dip left headlamps

MOTThis beautiful car has not been modernised on purpose. Feel the wind in your hair (if you have any) and hear the thrilling sound of the gear changing and the distinct sound of the engine.

This is a fantastic fun car to drive and a car that makes everyone smile when they see it.
You will love it.
