No joke, just when we were on the topic of the british motot industry, an old company for britland has reared its head around the corner.

Yes, just like MG, the rights to the name have been bought. Full story

Anyway good to hear that this old make has been bought, haven't heard of this car for a long time. Hope they make a new model, that'd e a good comeback.

Pretty cool that a respected classic marque is coming back.....

well if a chinese thing could do something like that, i wont really mind, but then just stop them from copying from BMWs and Benz...then they will be copying their small convertibles, the Z4, the Caterham, the Atom and those stuff...theeeeeennnn....i wont like it

well the car looks okay, not quite a fan of the front because it just looks weird, dosent look much of an Austin Healy/Austin Healey, whatever...well i guess i still wnt like it much as i loved the whatever that was i liked...go on chinese, ruin more cars, im the cheerleader of chinese ruining car cultures

The brand new Autin Healey looks cool. But if it is manufactured in China it will probably be crap. Well, not crap, just under par. I really hope that they do a good job of it because Austin Healey is a brand that deserves to be resurrected with one great car; that marque demands respect.
