• The Austin Seven helped bring motoring to the masses, and the Chummy remains one of its most recognisable and characterful derivatives
• The name Chummy arose from the intimate, cosy proximity of its passengers, given that the car’s interior width was a mere three feet
• It originally debuted with a 696cc side-valve, four-cylinder engine, which was quickly upscaled to 747cc (producing roughly 10.5hp) for the vast majority of its production run
• By 1929, the radiator grille was heightened, coil ignition replaced the magneto setup, and wider doors were introduced
• First registered in Nottinghamshire in July 1929, this delightful AD Series Austin Seven Chummy is finished in an attractive shade of Oxford Blue and retains a pleasing patina that reflects its age and long motoring life
• Particularly appealing is its ownership history, with just two owners since 1968, adding considerable interest to this charming vintage car
• Its honest presentation and period appeal make it an attractive choice for an enthusiast seeking vintage enjoyment rather than concours perfection
• Simple, engaging and full of personality, an accessible introduction to vintage motoring, with charm aplenty
