There is currently ( ten hours to go ) a B Type Coupe for sale on the Car and Classic Auction Website, which I had never come across until a couple of days ago.
Although there are clearly issues with the car the current highest bid of £4800 seems quite low for such a rare car, it will be interesting to see what it eventually reaches.

up to 6.3k now. It always seem a bit odd that they give so much information about the bidders...

From the photos it had a hot engine,but the rear n/s body in particular had some problems.

Hopefully the new owner now has a car which will be fun to us ‘as is’, ultimately it seemed a fair price however one could spend a lot of money in efforts to make it perfect, but opportunities to own one of these do not crop up often.

I know the new owner well. An ex Austin apprentice with several Austins, both big and small, he's delighted with it.

Sounds like an ideal person for the car to have found a new home with.

That looks lovely, not too scary to use regularly and a good price.
