"BIG HEALEY" Austin-Healey 3000 MK III Phase 2 (1965) · Colorado Red · Black Leather & Walnut Wood Interior · 124,232 km · MOT/TÜV: 09/2027 · Asking Price: €43,500
My Austin Healey is the ideal car for enthusiasts looking for an authentic, true-to-original, and well-maintained example—not over-restored, but genuine, stylish, and ready to drive.
The Phase 2 is the final and finest iteration of this legendary series — featuring the most powerful engine (inline-six, 2,912 cc, 150 hp), standard overdrive, and a revised rear suspension for significantly improved ride comfort. More legroom, higher-quality interior trim, and a clear step forward in refinement make the BJ8 Phase 2 the most accomplished Healey ever built.
This example has been maintained with great care over the years, with a consistent focus on preserving both the original parts and mechanical integrity. Not over-restored — but genuine, characterful, and ready to drive.
The interior is fully original: black leather upholstery with an honest, age-appropriate patina that lends the car real presence, a walnut-trimmed dashboard in impeccable condition, and a matching wood-rimmed sports steering wheel — all the hallmarks of classic British roadster charm.
