1963 Austin-Healey 3000 MkII (BJ7) cabriolet Sans réserve Constructeur : 1963 Austin-Healey 3000 MkII (BJ7) cabriolet Modèle : Sans réserve Carte Grise : Carte grise française N° Chassis : Châssis n° 24295 - Même propriétaire depuis 1990 - Entretien méticuleux chez des spécialistes - Voiture bien préservée, belle patine - A participé avec succès à plusieurs Tour Auto - Sans réserve Une des particularités de cette voiture est de n'avoir connu que deux propriétaires depuis 1984, ce qui est rare pour ce type de modèle. Le deuxième, notre passionné très méticuleux de Touraine, en a fait l'acquisition en janvier 1990 auprès du garage Royal Automobile de La Baule, comme en témoigne la facture d'achat qui figure au dossier. Depuis, il l'a régulièrement utilisée et a même pris part à quelques rallyes historiques comme le Tour de France Auto en 1998 et 1999 (année du centenaire de l'épreuve), ou le France Tour en septembre 2009. Pour rester opérationnelle et rouler sans souci, elle a fait l'objet d'un entretien régulier et le dossier comporte un grand nombre de factures totalisant plus de 40 000 euros depuis 1990, auprès d'établissements réputés comme le Garage Tessier, de Veigné, ou celui d'Éric Pérou, spécialiste du modèle. Grâce à cette existence entre des mains soigneuses, elle se présente aujourd'hui dans bel état de conservation avec une séduisante patine intérieure et une capote efficace. S'agissant d'une 3000 MkII, elle offre l'avantage de deux petites places arrière et d'un équipement moins spartiate que les premières versions, avec notamment un pare-brise bombé et des vitres remontantes. Son tableau de bord sportif comporte un "Terratrip" utile pour les rallyes de régularité et son 6-cylindres 3 litres lui donne une belle vivacité accompagnée d'une sonorité grisante, dont le futur utilisateur pourra profiter avec la confiance que donne une voiture bien entretenue et d'une indiscutable authenticité.

The second owner (a very meticulous enthusiast from Touraine) purchased it in January 1990 from the Royal Automobile garage in La Baule, as evidenced by the purchase order included in the file.

In order to keep it roadworthy and ensure trouble-free driving, the car has been regularly serviced and the file contains a large number of invoices totalling over 40,000 euros since 1990, from reputable workshops such as Garage Tessier in Tours and Éric Pérou’s workshop, a specialist of this model.   Having been in such careful hands, it is now in a beautifully preserved condition, with an attractive interior patina and a reliable soft top. As a 3000 MkII, it offers the advantage of two small rear seats and a less spartan specification than the earlier versions, notably featuring a curved windscreen and roll-up windows. Its sporty dashboard features a ‘Terratrip’ – useful for regularity rallying events – and its 3-litre 6-cylinder engine provides impressive performance paired with an exhilarating sound, which the future owner will be able to enjoy with the reassurance of a well-maintained car and its undeniable authenticity.
