2022 Caton Healey
Owned by: Caton Hosted by: Scabal
The Caton looks at first glance like your typical Healey 100, but it has been extensively re-engineered both mechanically and in its all-new bodywork. The result uses the same basic chassis and running gear as the original, but with a smoother, restyled body and higher-quality interior.
It’s built using a fascinating mix of current OEM-level technology and traditional craftsmanship skills, combining parent company Envisage Group’s bespoke engineering know-how with the decades-old experience attained by JME Healeys.
Only 25 cars will be produced, each one tailored to customer spec. Its chassis undergoes a complete restoration, suspension and brakes are uprated, the engine is tuned and a new five-speed gearbox is fitted. Most strikingly, the interior is re-engineered and bespoke retrimmed to extremely high quality. www.caton.co.uk
