A British Roadster with History

For sale is a beautiful 1966 Austin-Healey 3000 Mk III, one of the most sought-after British roadsters of its era and a classic that combines sporting character, timeless elegance and unmistakable British style in a very special way.

The vehicle offered here was comprehensively and expertly restored from the ground up in 1997. During this restoration, numerous components were replaced with new parts and the Austin-Healey was rebuilt with great attention to quality and durability.

Since completion of the restoration, the vehicle remained continuously in the possession of an enthusiast and collector until 2026. For almost three decades, the Healey was carefully maintained, regularly serviced and driven exclusively in fine weather. After every outing, the vehicle was put back under protection in the garage. It was only for reasons of age that the long-time owner reluctantly decided to part with this special vehicle.

It is particularly noteworthy that, despite its long-term ownership by a collector, this Austin-Healey was never simply left standing. The vehicle was regularly driven and used every year. You can tell this today: The mechanicals do not feel as though they have suffered from prolonged standing, but instead present themselves in very good working order.

This Austin-Healey 3000 Mk III is an exceptionally beautiful example of one of the great British sports car classics.

The high-quality restoration, the almost 30-year ownership by an enthusiast and collector, and the fact that the vehicle was not merely stored but regularly maintained and driven throughout all those years, make this Healey particularly interesting.

This is not a collection vehicle that has been laid up for years and first needs to be brought back to technical life. The car runs, drives and shifts very well, conveying the impression of a well-maintained and regularly used classic from the very first miles.

An overall very good, honest and exceptionally well-preserved vehicle that is ready for immediate use.

Get in, open the top, start the inline six-cylinder engine – and enjoy the next drive.

History, Technology and Character

The powerful inline six-cylinder engine runs beautifully smoothly and impresses with very strong pulling power. The engine responds cleanly to the throttle, runs evenly and shows neither hesitation nor any other unwanted abnormalities.

The gearbox also shifts very well. The overdrive characteristic of the Austin-Healey works perfectly and ensures a particularly pleasant driving experience, especially on longer outings.

The interior was completely renewed as part of the restoration and remains in an exceptionally beautiful and well-maintained condition to this day.

The seats were newly upholstered in leather, the carpet was renewed, and the corresponding trim and equipment parts were also refurbished or replaced as part of the work. The result is a classic, high-quality interior that fits the overall appearance of the vehicle perfectly.

The entire body is in very good condition and is rust-free. There is no damage or comparable defects.

The paintwork also impresses with its very good and high-quality finish. There are only two scratches on the driver's side, which are shown accordingly in the sales photos. Apart from that, the body presents itself as exceptionally beautiful and well maintained.

The soft top is in like-new condition. The chrome parts are also in excellent condition and underline the elegant lines of this British classic.

The headlights, taillights and other attached components are likewise in excellent condition. It is precisely the many details that create an altogether harmonious and high-quality overall appearance.
