Yes - that was quick. Launched in 1967, but dropped in 71, the Austin 3 Litre was a flop - about 10000 were built, but it never caught on.
Based on the FWD Austin 1800 body shell, the 3 litre had a straight six engine, but was RWD, and too bulky and clumsy to sell - it was aimed at the Austin Westminster market, but apart from a few police forces nobody wanted it...

It is sort of goofy-looking. But I can see it as a police car, very easily. Was it as expensive as the Rovers and Volvos of the day?

It would have been comparable to the basic Rover 2000, or the Volvo 144, I suppose, although the latter wouldn't have been a natural choice then as a police car - being foreign.
