Premiums compare the median price of sales with each option against comparable sales without it, mined from verified auction listings. Sales are pooled across markets on a relative-price basis, so exchange rates and market levels can't skew the split. Options interact in ways a one-at-a-time split can’t capture — treat each premium as directional rather than gospel.

Marque analyst note

The Austin-Healey 100 market has retreated sharply, with median prices falling to $24,500 and showing a year-over-year decline of 17 percent. The recent sell signal reflects this downward pressure, though the sample of just four transactions over the past twelve months limits confidence in month-to-month directional moves.

Liquidity remains thin, with only one active listing and ten total sales tracked across our broader dataset. This sparse transaction volume means buyers face limited selection and sellers may encounter extended holding periods or need to adjust expectations to move inventory.

The Austin-Healey 100 carries a collectible classification with moderate desirability and a score of 6, suggesting it occupies a solid but not premium tier within classic British roadster markets. Condition and originality typically drive individual sale outcomes more than macro trends at this liquidity level.

The tracked fleet averaged 234 miles, pointing to cars that are either well-preserved examples or heavily driven specimens—the wide variance typical of a thin market without standardized condition profiles.

Looking ahead, the model is projected to recover modestly, gaining 9.5 percent over three years and 12.8 percent over five years to reach roughly $26,800 and $27,600 respectively. This recovery assumes stabilization of demand rather than aggressive appreciation, reflecting the car's solid but not commanding place in the collectible hierarchy.
