AUSTIN A40 SOMERSET - EXCELLENT CAR - FULLY RE-TRIMMED !! for sale

Current customer rating: current rating for this car(4.1) based on 322 votes
The Somerset was the first design from Austin under the BMC merger. Despite its short production run its modern American styling influenced many later BMC cars. The 1200 cc “B” series engine produced 42 bhp and allowed 70 mph top speed and the fairly tall top gear made 60 mph cruising no problem.

This outstanding car is a 1953 A 40 Somerset in blue. It is perhaps the best one we have seen and in excellent condition in all areas. In 2009 it was treated to a £2 k plus re-trim. the leather upholstery. carpets and headlining were replaced and then in 2011 an engine overhaul was carried out by Alan Thompson motor engineers in Stockport at a cost of over £1800. 00.

The underside is A 1 and original and the paint finish is excellent. It runs and drives beautifully. the column change works well and the brakes pull up strongly.

Although this car is MOT exempt. we have recently treated it to an MOT test. a new set of leads. battery. tune up and rear brake overhaul. It is now ready for the road. A rare opportunity to purchase one of the very best ones left.
