This very rare (only 640 were made) and factory built Austin Healey 100/M "Le Mans" is recently complete, and very professional restored to the highest possible level. It was built in 1956 and delivered in Düsseldorf, Germany. It shows all the original details including colour: Duotone Healey Blue and Old English White. Chassis number BN2L-231785 is registered at the British Motor Industry Heritage Trust and comes with the original Heritage Certificate as well as the 100 M " Le Mans" Certificate of Membership. Also the large file with other documents , hundreds of pictures etc. comes with this very rare Healey. The Austin Healey 100 M "Le Mans" "factory-built" sports cars were produced between September 5, 1955 and July 16, 1956. According to factory records discovered in July of 1985, only 640 of these 100 M cars were made. Today, the 640 factory-built 100 M "Le Mans" cars are sought after because of their rarity, confirmable chassis identification numbers and the mystique of owning this original, limited-production, high-performance automobile.
