As far as we can ascertain at this time this is an original right hand drive and UK car and of course it is the more popular BJ8 configuration. J.M.E. Healeys, the well known Healey specialists, are reputed to have restored this car in 1991 at a cost of in excess of £18000 and it has only covered a mere 4700 miles since in the hands of its long standing private owner and it is only for sale today due to his impending emigration.

It is described as being in very good gondition throughout and this highly desirable model will be fought hard over at the sale.
