1964 Austin-Healey

Sprite Mk III



What We Like

British sports cars have been popular with enthusiasts for many decades, with small roadsters from the 1960s being of particular interest. This Sprite Mk III appears to be a great "driver" that is powered by a factory 1,098cc inline-four paired with a 4-speed manual gearbox, and comes with service records since 1989. Additionally, this car has been upgraded with SU carburetors, electronic ignition, an updated stereo system, and more to enhance the experience. If you're looking for a small, lightweight British roadster at an attractive entry-point, give this Sprite a look!
