Inside, the Connolly red leather bucket seats and rear demi-bench seats look great and contrast nicely with the exterior color. The matching red wilton wool style carpet is in similar shape. A black, three-spoke steering wheel faces the driver. The instrument panel and inner door liners are all in excellent shape while the center console is in very good order. A floor-mounted shifter on the transmission tunnel completes the interior. 

Engines fitted with three SU HS4 carburetors (total area 5.3 sq. inches) and an improved camshaft were announced at the end of May 1961. Other changes included a vertical barred front grille. Optional extras were similar to the Mark I. 

Competition to this Austin in 1962 included Alfa Romeo’s 2000 Spider and Jaguar’s XK-150.
