Story:

In 1958 the Austin A40 Farina appeared, which has little in common with its namesake. The two-door hatchback sedan with a self-supporting body designed by Pininfarina in Italy was the successor to the Austin A35, from which it had also taken over the mechanics:

a 4-cylinder in-line engine with 948 cm³ and 34 bhp (25 kW). The car reached a top speed of 115 km / h. In terms of design, the vehicle was praised as successful by the trade press, among other things because of the good gear ratio and advanced design.
