The Appeal

One of the world's perennial classics, the MG B offers a relatively easy avenue into classic car ownership. Excellent support networks, parts availability and street-ready performance make these enduring little cars a permanent 'safe harbour' for enthusiasts - and are still every bit as robust and reliable as they ever were.

This beautiful '72 GT has been cosseted and treated to a selection of performance enhancements, including a bore-out to 1,950cc and a Kent Racing Cam. That's a highly beguiling combo - how could you possibly resist a higher-octane experience in perhaps the most iconic British classic in history?

Supplied with a fresh MOT and an impressive history file, this is a car with everything going for it, and we're sure you'll have trouble resisting that bid button!
