There are few cars that so well embody the excitement and romance of a golden era of international competition on the European road-rally circuit as does the Austin-Healey 3000.

By 1960, the British Motor Corporation’s competition department had compiled an impressive collection of trophies with the 3000, and for the 1961 season, they prepared five examples, each of which became known by its British registration number.
