Mike's Austin A40 Somerset

The mostly dull, few years story of my ownership of a 1954 Austin A40 Somerset. From buying her on 25th Aug 2013 to selling her and her being taken away on 22nd April 2017. For my own interest, but probably much to the amusement of any long established Austin enthusiasts who stumble across this. And if reading my stories of joy (and woe) is any use to any newbie like me who is thinking of getting into something similar then that's a bonus.

Postscript..

There is Austin DNA in Amy's replacement. Some tiny piece somewhere!



Nissan wouldn't be what they are today if Austin hadn't partnered wih them to build Somersets in the 50's


Slight difference, Amy's top speed, 55mph. The 350z, 155mph!! Eeek!
