Healey Cars
The Donald Healey Motor Company was established in 1946 and based in Warwick (not too far from our offices in Rubery!), and initially produced the models now commonly referred to as the Warwick Healeys. In 1952, a joint venture was created by Donald’s company and the Austin division of the British Motor Corporation and the Austin Healey was born!
Austin Healeys were produced until 1972, at which point Donald Healey left what had become British Leyland, joining Jensen Motors which subsequently produced the Jensen Healeys until 1976.

Supporting Young Drivers
We know that insurance can often be a barrier to young people being able to own or enjoy classic vehicles, so we have developed insurance products specifically aimed at supporting young Austin Healey enthusiasts, available only through active membership with the club.
We have a range of options for young club members:
- Accompanied Driver Cover – a young enthusiast can drive a Healey owned by a parent or grandparent whilst accompanied
- Unaccompanied Driver Cover – a young member can drive a Healey owned by a family member without supervision
- Own vehicle – cover for young members that own their own Austin Healey (or variant of the model)
If you’re a young member of the Austin Healey Club and would like to get a quote from Peter James Insurance, please speak to your main club contact. The club will then contact us to arrange a callback with you, where a member of our friendly team will be able to give you a quote.
