If memory serves correct, AH 100-4 was a four cyl, 100-6 was a six, and then
the final and most powerful incarnation was the 3000 which of course was a
six. I'm not familiar with a "300". And, although I love Healeys, I agree
with you...for the same money, I'll take a Series I E-type coupe any day of
the week!

I'm not a Healy expert, but didn't the 300 have a 4 cyl engine? I
remember
driving one years ago, and it was very underpowered. Maybe I'm
getting
confused with another model. The 3000 is a different story
altogether, but
at the prices they're going for these days, one can buy a Jag XKE.
Now
that is a car to covet!!
