OMG my neighbour had one just like that when i was a kid ( 30/35) yrs ago..
GONE ON I DARE YOU....
Got to be worth a bid, after all it's in the very desirable colour of BL dog turd brown .....
Loads of room, practical layout easy to work on and amazing BL build quality (ahem). You know you want it. Only five minutes left. Get bidding.

My folks had one exactly the same spec/colour. It was on an old 'X' plate though. I remember it well!
Ah well didn't buy it
the wife distracted me

I have this strange desire to own an Austin 3 Litre again
AGAIN!!!!
I can say without hesitation that the Maxi was the worst car I ever owned - cr@ppy build quality, rubbish cable gearchange, cornered like a legless terrapin, gutless - I've never owned such a rubbish car, before or since...
Mmmmmm... formica dashboard, seat covers made from bedspread
Well, at least you could use it as a donor vehicle (ball joints, anyone?)
My parents used to have a dark green Austin 1800 - similar to the Maxi, but with differences, such as the finned rear lights like a taxi. God that was over 35 years ago and I can still remember the reg (XWU 233G). Quite a comfy ride, but the dizzy being at the front of the engine wasn't good in wet weather - ISTR that a rubber glove made a good weather seal!

I am sure your wife will be pleased to hear that she looks just like Brooke Harman. Is the picture of "GEMMA", in your archive, the mistress?
We should be so lucky to have just one stunning looking woman in our lives let alone 2+.
I've been rumbled
Oopps Sorry to have spoilt your fun I hope the Mrs and the Mistress will not be to hard on you now that they know about each other.
