1957 Austin-Healey 100-Six BN4
Chassis No. BN4L041400
Includes British Motor Industry Heritage Trust Certificate
The Ideal Driver Set up Nicely for Touring and Club Events
Well-Kept Professional Restoration with Fresh Mechanical Tune
Accompanied by an Extensive File of Restoration and Service Receipts
Complete with Spare Assembly, Weather Equipment & Tonneau Cover
Following on the heels of the tremendously successful Austin-Healey 100-Four, the 100-Six addressed a number of
concerns yet still remained unmistakably true to the Healey breed. A wider oval-shaped grille, a fashionable and
functional hood-scoop and a thoroughly revised interior gave the 100-series a visual upgrade, while a stretched
wheelbase, an optional overdrive fourth gear and a modified BMC C-Series inline six-cylinder engine helped boost
performance. The new availability of a pair of "occasional" jump seats in the BN4 2+2 models - the 100-Six was
still ideal for, in the words of period advertising, "either in competition or just for a family holiday spin."
Beautifully Presented Big Healey - The Ultimate 100-Six Driver
Still a highly capable open-top sports car today, this outstanding example presented here is what marque
enthusiasts would consider the ultimate 100-Six driver. According to the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust,
41400 was completed on the 3rd of May 1957 as a LHD North American Export destined to the United States through New
York. The car came well equipped with chrome wire wheels, overdrive, heater and laminated windscreen.
A sunny California car, finished in red paintwork over tan appointments, this particular roadster was subjected to
a thorough and extensive rotisserie restoration completed in 2005. New equipment addressed during the restoration
included: a complete Connolly Leather interior upholstery, wool carpeting, 72-Spoke chrome wheels w/195/70 - R15
tires, Stay-fast Canvas Top and Tonneau Cover, side curtains, front disk brakes with power booster, springs &
shocks (front & rear), wire harness, brake lines, cables and virtually every available component on the vehicle!
Three point belts and third brake light add safety in modern traffic, while spare assembly and weather equipment
accompany the Healey. Additionally there is an extensive service and restoration file/binder that will accompany
the sale.
The drivability of this 100-Six is simply unmatched; during the restoration it was upgraded with a beautifully
worked 3000 Triple-Carbureted engine and drivetrain with Teflon bushing suspension, all dialed in with plenty test
miles under its belt. In the years following its restoration, the car has be successfully toured, shown, driven and
enjoyed extensively and is now ready for its next caretaker to continue the tradition.
Sporting a fresh tune and detailing, this beautifully presented "Big Healey" is the ideal candidate for enthusiasts
of the classic sporting lines, raw power and handling so unique to these period British machines.

Aston Martin signs Letter of Intent for technical partnership with AMG
Thu, 25 Jul 2013A little over two months ago came reports that Daimler and Aston Martin were in talks, again, about "supply and technical-cooperation agreements." The next step has been taken with Aston Martin announcing that it has signed a Letter of Intent that looks "towards a technical partnership" with Mercedes-AMG GmbH, and the two companies aiming to have definitive agreements done by year's end.
While it will get to use certain electric and electronic components from AMG, the true golden egg for the maker of the Vanquish will be the ability to develop a new line of "bespoke V8 powertrains" that will be fitted to "a new generation of models." In return for opening up the larder, Daimler will get a non-voting stake of up to five percent of Aston Martin.
Nothing else is being said about the tie-up for the moment, but there's a press release below with a few more details.
Aston Martin's deal with Mercedes-AMG more than skin-deep
Tue, Jun 30 2015Aston Martin is working on a raft of new models. But it's not going it alone: it has a technical partnership with Mercedes-AMG, the details of which have only been revealed in bits and pieces. If these latest spy shots are anything to go by, however, the arrangement could run deeper than anyone initially let on. Spied undergoing testing at the Nurburgring, this prototype for the upcoming successor to the Aston Martin DB9 is widely expected to be called the DB11 (10 is being used by James Bond's new ride). From the outside it doesn't look different than the previous versions we've seen running around, but this time we can also peer into the cabin, and that's where things start to get interesting. Despite the best arm-waving efforts by the development engineers, our spy photographers managed to snap a couple of shots of the interior. And though it looks far from being ready for production, the components we see appear to have been lifted from the Mercedes S-Class Coupe – particularly the steering wheel, digital instrument cluster, and almost the entire center console. This speaks to a deeper collaboration between the British and German automakers. The 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 from the Mercedes-AMG GT, C63, and G500 4x42 is already being adapted for use in the next generation of Astons. Related Video:
Aston Martin Vantage AMR equipped with a stick shift to honor Le Mans win
Wed, May 1 2019Where and how a car debuts can say a lot about that vehicle. With the newest Aston Martin, the message is clear: It's all about the lasting visceral connection between driver and automobile. The Vantage AMR, with a manual transmission and a twin-turbocharged V8, debuted today at the 6 Hours of Spa-Francorchamps, the second-to-last race in the 2018-2019 FIA World Endurance Championship. Of the 200 examples, 59 will be available with special "Vantage 59" trimmings. We've known a manual-transmission Vantage was on the way for some time, but as our previous report said, this is the first time the Mercedes-AMG-sourced engine has been paired with a stick. So it expectedly took some time to develop. The brawny power source beneath the Vantage's hood is a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8. It is rated at 503 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 461 lb-ft of torque at 2,000 rpm. It has a top speed of 195 mph and has a claimed zero-to-60 time of 3.9 seconds. The AMR's stats are slightly down from the base Vantage due to use of the Graziano-developed seven-speed transmission. The automatic Vantage offers 505 lb-ft of peak torque and has a listed zero-to-60 time of 3.6 seconds. In part due to the change from automatic transmission to manual, the AMR is significantly lighter than the regular Vantage. Switching to standard carbon ceramic brakes also helped the AMR come in 209 pounds lighter, yet Aston says the car maintains its nearly even 50-50 weight distribution. Several technologies aim to keep the AMR's motorsport-inspired driving feel as smooth, quick and efficient as possible. The AMR has a limited-slip differential, adaptive damping (with Sport, Sport+, and Track modes), and AMSHIFT, Aston Martin's version of heel-toe-mimicking rev-matching. The driver selectable transmission aid also allows for full-throttle upshifting. Although Aston Martin is earning the attention and admiration of purists by building a Vantage with a manual transmission, not everybody will be lucky enough to get one. Production is limited to 200 units, with 59 of those cars offered in an extra-limited-edition "Vantage 59" spec (this was similarly done to the DBS). Honoring 60 years since the DBR1's win at the 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans, all Vantage 59 cars will wear Stirling Green and Lime suits. Inside, they get Dark Knight leather, Alcantara trim, and Lime accents. The remaining 141 cars are offered in Sabiro Blue, Onyx Black, China Grey, or White Stone.
