Description 1.2L B-Series inline four engine; four speed manual with column shift; leather seats, bench-style rear seating; centrally mounted dashboard Built in 1953 this Austin Somerset is a charming slice of post-war British motoring history, with its gloss black bodywork and red leather interior.

Produced by the Austin Motor Company between 1952 and 1954, it was the successor to the A40 Devon and featured a more streamlined “Transatlantic” design.

With its 1.2L B-Series inline four engine with four speed manual gearbox with column shift, leather seats, bench-style rear seating, centrally mounted dashboard, this makes this a very useable classic.

Brilliant condition for a 72 years old, no paperwork.
