The Appeal
The Sebring MXR is a kit-built homage to the iconic Austin Healey 3000, delivering the classic British roadster aesthetic with more accessible running costs and modern mechanicals underneath. The vendor describes it as the ideal car for those who love the Healey 3000 but find originals beyond reach.
This example was constructed over a three-year period and features a turbocharged Nissan 200SX twin-cam engine mated to a five-speed manual gearbox. The vendor notes the bodywork has been re-sprayed and fitted with chrome bumpers, while inside, the black leather interior is complemented by new door cards, a burr mahogany dashboard and matching door caps. A build file and manuals document its creation, and with an MOT valid until April 2027, this Sebring MXR presents a well-documented package which is ready to enjoy.
