Classic Car Auctions says:
Super rare and equally as quirky, the Austin A40 Tourer....
Right-hand drive from new and powered by a 4-cylinder, 1200cc, 40bhp OHV engine
Built from CKD kits at the Austin Distributors Federation plant in Petone, New Zealand
One of very few examples in the UK as they were only distributed in Australia and New Zealand
Arrived on our shores in July 2019 and just the one owner in the UK
Clearly the car was restored in its native New Zealand prior to coming to the UK
Looking like a grown up Dinky Toy, it seems to generate affection from all
On offer from a large private collection, this little Austin has plenty of love to give
