1959 Austin Healey 3000

Description

This car can be run on synthetic fuel as well as traditional petrol.

As part of our commitment to sustainability, we run all of our competition cars on synthetic fuel. This is a like-for-like fossil-free alternative to petrol that reduces emissions by up to 80%. This can be mixed with traditional petrol and no modifications to the car are required. You can fuel this car with traditional petrol – we simply use synthetic fuel as part of our sustainability goals.

Originally built on 29th October 1959, our Austin-Healey 3000 Mark I four-seater is an absolutely stunning car.

Supplied new as a left-hand-drive export model finished in Ivory White with a red interior and black hood, it was dispatched on 7th November 1959 to Dusseldorf, Germany. From factory, it had several optional extras including wire wheels, a heater, laminated windscreen, miles-per-hour speedometer, and overdrive.

In 1991, the car returned to the UK, where it was converted to right-hand drive and a black leather interior was added. The 3000 Mark I, often referred to as the “BT7” in four-seater form like this one, has an inline-six and a 4 speed manual gearbox with overdrive. 

Our Austin Healey 3000 comes from long-term ownership and has been extremely well cared for. It has a substantial history file containing numerous invoices, past MOT certificates and an original Driver’s Handbook.
