The 3-Litre was a single generation, codenamed ADO61, and intended to be BMC's offering in the 3 litre executive class. It used Hydrolastic suspension with self levelling hydraulic rams at the rear and was praised for its excellent ride and handling. Alec Issigonis, who designed the front wheel drive cars, had no part in the 3-Litre. The interior was luxurious, with wood veneers and cloth headlining, and the boot was longer than that of the 1800. Its model years run from 1967 to 1971.
