"The common Swedish nickname for this car was and often still is "köttbulle" (meatball), although it possibly deserves a better one. It embodies a lot of charm and attitude."

Description

It was sold new to Erik Eriksson in the small village of Kattisavan outside Lycksele and was almost completely loyal to that municipality until 2009, when it was exported to Ed in Dalsland. During either the seventies or eighties, it was removed from the register but was re-registered in 1992 after a renovation. The current owner bought the car in 2017, has had lots of fun with it, but is not a sentimental owner. Now, it is time for a change of vehicle. The latest and thus last approved inspection was done on May 4, 2017. When the new rules came into effect on April 20, 2018, it was already approved and thus exempt from inspection.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition

    Starts easily and effortlessly, noticeably mechanically quiet with no valve ticking. Unsynchronized 1st gear with an otherwise fine direct gear feel and low-geared box. The current owner performed a light overhaul of the engine in 2017, including replacement of gaskets, seals, and the timing chain.

  • Interior condition

    The front seats were reupholstered by a saddler during the time with the owner in Ed, Dalsland. Clean and nice feeling inside with good door sides and a patinated, whole, and fine headliner.

  • Exterior condition

    Painted in the early nineties by RS Billack in Lycksele (decal on one of the side windows), some paint residue on trims and seals, but shiny, neat, and presentable.

  • General condition

    Fun, round, and functional Englishman in a reasonably fine condition, ready to drive and prepared for the season.

Facts about the model

En rostfri "köttbulle" kan låta som en udda anrättning, men det var så de här små bilarna fick heta i Sverige. På hemmaplan var bilen en viktig vardagskugge i de engelska hushållen på femtiotalet. A35:an var de första bilen som utrustades med BMC:s A-motor. Samma maskin som i olika storlekar satt i bland andra hundkojorna, MG Midget och Austin Healey Sprite.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.

  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
