An opportunity arose for the proprietor to enjoy a day out driving this delightful Iris Blue Austin Healey Sprite Mk1 Frogeye. Although dating from the late 50’s this remarkable little car was amazingly tight to drive and one of the most pleasurable to date! The occasion was uniquely filmed by Helixcopters Ltd. who specialise in bespoke aerial filming & photography utilising an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), commonly known as a drone.
