AUSTIN A125 SHEERLINE

Sports saloon, limousine.

Poor man's Bentley Mk VI with attractive razor-edge bodywork and traditional grille flanked by P100s. IFS, hydraulic brakes, and lots of wood and leather, but four-on-the-column, horrid instrumentation, and very undergeared. Limousine (new for 1950) very rare. Handful of first Sheerlines (A110) and Princesses (A120) have 3460cc engine.
