Austin-Healey’s and the Austin Healey Car Club of NZ and Others

[Roger Dowding]

To celebrate the 70th Anniversary of the Healey 100 - revealed at the London Motor Show in October 1952, two days later it became the Austin Healey 100.

" 70th Anniversary Austin-Healey BN1 Prints " are being done by Sports Car Art.

here is the promotional version;



Back to those times an advertisement about the AH 100 Fuel Economy and Performance
35 miles per gallon and 110 miles per hour
- Was that an American Gallon ?? - which I understand is about 4 litres, not 4.5 litres as it is with the Imperial Gallon.



It is a US advert, and those Austin A40 Somersets too !! don't think the 1200 cc car would have been a big seller in the USA
