Sought after and rarer 'MK1' example; twin-Cam 16-valve Lotus engine with Overdrive; reported thorough rebuild of engine and gearbox; new mohair hood and seat covers; Hard top included; driven to the sale The Jensen-Healey was conceived as a modern successor to the Austin-Healey 3000, with Jensen Motors and Donald Healey combining forces to create a new generation of British sports car.
Built at Jensen’s West Bromwich factory, the two-seat roadster featured traditional styling alongside more modern engineering, most notably Colin Chapman’s 2.0-litre, 16-valve Lotus 907 twin-cam engine.
With around 140bhp, rear-wheel drive and a four-speed manual gearbox, the Jensen-Healey offered impressive performance and genuine open-top appeal.

The MK1 being considerably rarer than the later MK2.
