1958 Austin Healey 100/6 | Windsor, Berkshire

A 1958 Austin Healey 100/6, the Big Healey that swapped four cylinders for six. The model is liked for its long bonnet with a scoop, its low, wide grille and its fixed windscreen, and for a smoother, stronger engine than the car before it. A 100-Six finished fourth overall on the 1958 Liège-Rome-Liège rally. This car is finished in blue with a blue interior, so the long bonnet and the cockpit read as one colour in shot. It seats two, which keeps the roadster's lines clean and puts driver and passenger clearly in view. The 1950s shape gives advertising, film and TV, and music video work a period British sports car with a clean side profile. Photographers and fashion and editorial teams get a low, wide body that leaves room for the location around it. At events, a blue roadster of this length gives a stand or forecourt an easy focal point. It suits a wedding or birthday too. The car is based in Windsor, Berkshire.
