Description Finished in attractive 'Iris Blue' In current ownership since 2012 1275cc engine fitted w/ type-9 gearbox & new clutch Previously registered in California, USA First UK registered in 1998 HPI Clear There is something wonderfully right about a MkII Sprite.

Small, light, beautifully proportioned and utterly uncomplicated, these little Austin-Healeys delivered genuine sports-car thrills without needing big power or big budgets.

Today, the surviving MkIIs have become highly collectible, particularly when they combine the right looks with sympathetic engineering improvements.

This 1961 RHD MkII, finished in gorgeous Iris Blue with Navy Blue interior and hood, is an especially appealing classic.

Its time in California has clearly been kind to the body and underside, while a well-considered 1275cc engine conversion, five-speed gearbox and upgraded running gear have transformed the driving experience without losing the essential character of the Sprite.
