Austin Healey 3000 MK III BJ8 The Austin Healey 3000 is an iconic sports car, produced between 1959 and 1967 by Jensen Motors for the Austin Healey brand. Appreciated for its elegance and performance, it was nicknamed "Big" because of its powerful 3-litre six-cylinder engine. Among the various versions, the 3000 MK III phase 1, of which only 1, 390 were produced, was distinguished by its comfort and meticulous finish, with a wooden dashboard and rising windows. Phase 2, of which 16, 320 units were produced up to 1967, benefited from a number of technical improvements, including optimised suspension and a quieter exhaust system, making driving more pleasant. The bodywork was in excellent condition, rust-free and perfectly aligned. The upholstery and soft top had recently been restored and were in irreproachable condition. The owner was an enthusiast of the marque and regularly serviced his Austin. The gearbox and its overdrive work marvellously, giving this old car astonishing torque. The Austin Healey is fitted with front disc brakes as standard. Braking is perfect and in a straight line, all the brakes have just been serviced.
