Is there a German-made sports car that looks like a Healey 3000 and has a BMW M Sport engine?
I'm trying to think of a sports car that is similar to a Healey 3000 in looks (may only come as a coupe though) and I believe it's German with a large BMW 'M' Sport engine. It has large low profile tyres but actually rides and handles quite well. I have seen them at motor shows in the past but can't recall the brand/model. Can you help?

We've had a think and aren't quite sure which car it is you're thinking of. Could be a Wiesmann. There was talk of a revival of Austin Healey (back in 2006) but it hasn't come to fruition yet and doesn't look like it will. Details are here: wagons.autoblog.com/2006/01/29/details-emerging-of.../
