1960 AUSTIN HEALEY ‘FROGEYE’ SPRITE 

This Austin-Healey ‘Frogeye’ Sprite, registered in June 1960, is believed to be one family-owned from new up to the present keeper (although this can't be proven), with its V5C showing three registered keepers overall. However, a photocopy of a previous V5C does seem to back this up. The car was restored over 2022 and 2023, complete with a new soft-top, full body restoration, new floors, inner and outer sills, spring boxes and all steel bonnet. While it is described by the vendor as running well, it has had little use since its restoration. The odometer shows 46,344 miles. As an historic vehicle, the Sprite is now MoT-exempt; there's no record of it having had one back to 2005, when online MoT records began. The only documentation with the car is its V5C, plus a photocopy of its previous one.
