The story continues with
The Legacy Edition
The Legacy Edition is the first Austin Continuation model, a beautifully specified, limited edition car with a number of exclusive elements including its gleaming Ensign Red paintwork, an exact match to the original colour offered in the 1940s.
A brand new lightweight pedal and steering system improves driveability and durability. CNC machined billet aluminium parts, super-smooth bearings and precision made components highlight Austin’s comprehensive approach to design and engineering.
Traditional Interior
Traditional looks and styling
The interior is traditionally styled using the finest leather, stitched and shaped by hand. The wooden rim steering wheel is complemented perfectly by the similarly prepared hand brake lever and a fully functioning electronic dash display sits centre stage before the driver.
THE J40 CONTINUATION
Perfectly formed, in a range of options
All Continuation cars are offered in a range of bespoke colours. Perfectly formed bumpers come complete with over-riders. A hand fabricated grill is finished with a ‘flying A’ Austin bonnet badge and a chrome bonnet strip, boot handle and steering wheel mounted horn push completes the look.


Limited Edition
Exclusive Ownership
Just 49 Legacy Edition cars will be created, a number chosen to celebrate the opening of the original Austin Pedal Cars factory in 1949, a landmark moment in automotive and cultural history.
