Current customer rating: current rating for this car(2.05) based on 404 votes
Introduced in March 1961 as the BN7 Mark II (2-seat) and BT7 Mark II (2+2). the 3000 Mark II series came with three SU HS4 carburettors and an improved camshaft. Changes included a vertical barred front grille. wind-up windows instead of side curtains. an improved hood. and a wrap-around windscreen. Optional extras were similar to the Mark I. although the factory hardtop option was dropped with the BJ7's introduction. From August 1961 a brake servo was also available as an optional extra. which greatly improved braking performance. The BJ7 was discontinued in October 1963 with the introduction of the 3000 Mark III. A 3000 Mark II BT7 with hardtop and overdrive tested by the British magazine The Motor in 1961 had a top speed of 112. 9 mph and could accelerate from 0–60 mph in 10. 9 seconds. The test car cost £1362 including taxes.

A total of 11. 64 were made: 355 BN7 Mark II. 5. 96 BT7 Mark II. and 6. 13 BJ7.

The vendor states that this Austin Healey MK11A BJ7 2 Plus 2 is finished in the ever popular Colorado red over Ivory with black interior. Originally supplied in to North America the last American owner bought the car from a dealer in Connecticut in 1993 and having taken a job in London he imported the Healey in to the UK the same year. Soon after his job took him to Singapore but the car remained in the UK housed in a dehumidified storage facility where she remained for several years. Fast forward to 2014 and the owner returned home to the USA but decides to sell the Healey.

She is now UK registered with all taxes paid and has recently had a new mohair hood and carpet set fitted to freshen up her already very sound condition. We believe she was restored some 25 years ago as the chassis and underside look in very good order.
