The Austin-Healey 3000 is a roadster built by BMC from 1959 to 1967, which (secretly of course) turns out to be a relaxed cruiser and behaves more civilly than its reputation would suggest.
Everything about a Healey 3000 – the shape, the technology, the driving experience – reveals its origins: it couldn’t be more British. Those who are receptive to the typical national charms will get their money’s worth, depending on the model.
Those who do not know the Big Healey from their own experience should at least know what to expect: The driving behaviour is antiquated like a classic car – so a little shake, rattle and roll is always part of it. Safety is not neglected, because it already has disc brakes on the front wheels.
