Part of Austin's A40 and A70 'County' Series, the Devon was introduced as the practical four-door saloon version of the range, distinct from the A40 Dorset, which was the two-door variant sharing the same general layout
The original mechanical specification consisted of a 1.2 litre inline-four cylinder BMC B-series engine, front coil sprung independent suspension and Girling brakes
Characterful post-war styling with separate wings and upright cabin proportions typical of Austin’s early-1950s production
This example is finished in what became known as 'Battleship Grey' at the time
Offered from long term ownership of ten years and forming part of an eclectic collection, the odometer records 76,368 miles at the time of cataloguing
The Austin has seen light use over recent years and largely stored, so an element of recommissioning is to be expected before prolonged road use
An increasingly uncommon survivor from the early days of Britain’s family motoring resurgence, offering a sensible entry point into 1950s saloon ownership and offered without reserve
