1972 Austin Healey Sprite For Self-Drive Hire
The Austin-Healey Sprite is a small open top sports car which was produced in the United Kingdom from 1958 to 1971. The Sprite was designed by the Donald Healey Motor Company, with production being undertaken at the MG factory at Abingdon. It first went on sale at a price of £669, using a tuned version of the Austin A-Series engine and as many other components from existing cars as possible to keep costs down.
This great fun little sports car is perfect for the New Forest. It’s small, lightweight and handles like it’s on rails!
Not suited for taller or lesser-mobile drivers as the cockpit is on the smaller side.
Our Austin-Healey was built in 1972, making it one of the last Sprites ever built.
