Lot 120
 

1957 Austin A35 Saloon
No Reserve

Sold for £2,812

(including buyers premium)


Lot details

Registration No: 508 UYR
Chassis No: AS5HCS83929
MOT: Exempt

  • Finished in Tweed Grey with a Cherry Red interior
  • Offered with the owner's handbook and current V5C Registration Document
  • Subject to a new clutch in 2020 and replacement radiator in 2023
  • Current ownership since 2019

Introduced in 1956, it replaced the highly successful Austin A30. The name reflected the larger and more powerful 34hp (25 kW) A-Series inline-four engine, enabling a slightly higher top speed and better acceleration. The A35 is very similar in appearance to the A30, except for a larger rear window aperture and a painted front grille, with chrome horse-shoe surround, instead of the chrome grille on the A30. The A35's ratios are better spaced and give a higher speed in third gear. Like the A30, the A35 was offered as a two- or four-door saloon and two-door "Countryman" estate and also as a van.

Finished in Tweed Grey with a very attractive contrasting Cherry Red interior, this A35 has resided in current ownership since 2019. ‘508 UYR’ was restored in 2018. The vendor considers the most recent paintwork as having ‘not been done well and is now in need of attention’. Said to be ‘running well and regularly serviced’ in current ownership, the A35 benefited from a new clutch in 2020 and replacement radiator in 2023. Some brake cylinders were also fitted in 2023. The vendor describes the condition of the bodywork, interior and electrics as ‘very good’, the engine and transmission as ‘excellent’ and the paintwork as ‘poor’. Offered with the owner’s handbook and the current V5C Registration Document.
