The timeless appeal of the MGB
Introduced in 1962, the MGB Roadster is considered one of the most successful sports cars of its time.

Over its 18-year production run, the core values of the MGB remained untouched: a sleek, attractive design, affordability, combined with good driving characteristics and low maintenance costs.
More than half a million units of this iconic sports car were produced, both as a convertible and a coupe. The MGB Roadster remains one of the best-selling and most beloved MG models to this day. Its 1. 8-liter engine offers reliable performance and a driving experience that continues to be praised by enthusiasts of classic British cars.
