Der er en del mangler der skal udbedres såsom udstødning,
bonnet lock, batteri, kromlister, luftfilteret mangler (haves
på lager) og nøglerne til bilen mangler, men de er

In 1957, the A55 Cambridge was introduced to replace the A50 model. It used the same 1.5 L B-Series engine as its predecessor, though 51 hp (38 kW) was now available. The Cambridge had been restyled somewhat and now had a larger boot. Just over 150,000 were produced when it was replaced by a new Pinin Farina -designed A55 Cambridge for 1959. Van and pick-up versions were also made until 1971 remaining based on the pre Farina bodies.
