Austin and Healey, together again
HFI last year released this artist’s conception of a coupe derivative of a modern-day Healey 3000.

Nanjing Automobile Corporation, which acquired the assets of MG Rover in 2005 and recently began production of the MG TF roadster at the Longbridge plant in Birmingham, England, this week announced that it has made a deal that will result in the revival of the Healey and Austin-Healey marques.

Nanjing, which owns the rights to Austin, has formed a partnership with HFI, which last year bought Healey Automobile Consultants, founded by Donald Healey in 1946. HFI had attracted much attention when it announced plans for modern-day versions of the Austin-Healey 3000 and Austin-Healey Sprite.

In a statement, Nanjing said that the deal with HFI resolves questions about the ownership of the brands and associated trademarks, and makes possible a joint venture by the companies. The Healey name last appeared on the Jensen Healey, which was produced from 1972-1976. Production of Austin-Healeys ended in 1970.

Nanjing last year said that it was considering introducing a line of sedans under the Austin name, which was one of the assets it acquired when it bought MG Rover.
