The Austin Healey Sprite was launched by BMC in 1958. Filling a gaping hole in the market for a cheap, mass-produced sports car, its conception and design were inspired. Good-looking and affordable, the "Frogeye Sprite" quickly became a classic. In 1961 the car was given a proper boot and a more conventional front end. The Sprite was now also available as the MG Midget, and this car was produced until the end of MG production in 1979.
