Definitely a cool looking concept, but kinda hard to see - anyone know of
any better pictures?

Looks like BMW may have plans to revive the Big Healeys along with the Mini.

I believe BMW retained certain British car maker brand names, including
Austin - but who owns the Healey name? Still owned by the family? What could
BMW call a car that is obviously a updated Healey expect Healey. Austin by
itself just doesn't create the same sport car image.
