With a lusty, six-cylinder soundtrack, the Austin-Healey 3000 is one of the most evocative British classics around. When the Austin-Healey 3000 was launched, externally at least it was unchanged from the outgoing 100-6. The major changes were mechanical, with the C-series engine growing in size to 2912cc. The 3000 MkII arrived in March 1961, with some detail changes and boasting a three-carburettor set-up, while the MkIII followed in March 1964. The last of the Big Healeys was built in 1967, but all variants remain popular today. Source - www.classiccarsforsale.co.uk
