Description
A very well-priced MGB Roadster, first registered in March 1967. This car has been in the same ownership since 2012 and is nicely presented in Tartan Red, with black part-leather interior and black vinyl hood. The car was partly restored a number of years ago including a full re-spray, and the mechanics were upgraded to a later tuned 18v MGB engine with 5-speed gearbox. The engine improvements include fast road camshaft and polished cylinder head ports, all resulting in bags of power. The 5-speed gearbox works well – a trusted improvement. The running gear includes banjo rear axle, MGB GT wheels (slightly wider than Roadster wheels), and being of the disc type, these are very rare. We are told the car has uprated springs and telescopic shock absorbers at the rear. Now running on one 12v battery. The upholstery has a nice ‘patina’ with full harness seat belts fitted together with sports steering wheel. The hood is easily put up and is in very, very good condition. The boot area is in good, tidy order as is the under-bonnet area – although a little extra cleaning under the bonnet would improve it. Solid underside and good exhaust. The engine starts easily and runs with good oil pressure. A Kenlowe cooling fan has been fitted. You will certainly have some fun in this car! MOT to August 2025, and classed as an historic vehicle so no tax to pay.
