AI Listing Summary
This 1968 Austin-Healey Sprite, a "nice usable example," has undergone a late 1990s restoration and an early 1990s engine rebuild, boasting wire wheels in excellent condition and a well-maintained interior.
While the "British Racing Green" paint presents well with only minor blemishes, and the mechanics are reported as sound with good handling, potential buyers should note the presence of age-related marks on the glass and trim, and a past repaint.

The car has had a restoration in the late 1990s and an engine rebuild in the early 1990s. The exterior presents well with no dings or dents noted, and the wheels and tires are in excellent condition with plenty of tread. The interior seats and carpets have been replaced and are in very good condition. The dashboard and instruments appear to be working correctly. Mechanically, the engine starts and idles smoothly, the gearbox selects gears easily, and the brakes work effectively. The car handles well with no issues reported from the suspension. There are a couple of minor paint blemishes and some areas that appear to have been repainted since the restoration.

Well known for its simplicity and fun driving experience, the Austin Healey Sprite was developed by the Austin Motor Company in partnership with the Donald Healey Motor Company.
It was designed to offer affordable, open-top motoring with genuine driver appeal.
Powered by a 1275cc engine, this low-weight machine delivers lively performance and nimble handling.
The Mark III introduced more comfort features, such as wind-up windows, though the cabin remained basic and driver-focused.
Owned for almost 8 years, Alan has enjoyed the Sprite but, by his own admission, hasn’t used it as much as he would have liked.
