The Austin-Healey 3000 is the best known model of the British sports car manufacturer. Its distinctive and beautiful lines were designed by Jensen and the car was built on the same production line in Abingdon, England, as the various MG models of that time. The Austin-Healey 3000 was a popular rally car from the beginning. Due in part to its low weight, the short wheelbase and the excellent balance the car did very well in various rallies and races.

In 2010 this Healey 3000 MK II was bought by its Dutch owner from its first owner in the United States. As a result, the car is for the most part still original; body, engine, gearbox, rear axle and even keys are with matching numbers. Needless to say that this Healey has a Heritage Certificate. In the 12 years with its Dutch owner the Healey has been treasured; no effort or expenses were spared and that is clearly visible. Less than 2000 km ago the engine was completely overhauled by the renowned S+S tuning / Van Giersbergen company for an amount of Euro 15,000 (invoice is present). During the overhaul the original “STD” pistons were found in the engine, which means that this was the engine’s first overhaul. A lot of attention was also paid to the body and the interior while preserving the patina. The car has always been excellently maintained and is therefore ready to be driven. All invoices for completed maintenance work are present.
We would like to invite you to get to know this beautiful Austin-Healey 3000 MK II and its phantastic driving characteristics. Please make an appointment with Harm Derks in advance, e-mail harm.derks@broekhuis.nl.
