Description

Lovely Red MGB Roadster with chrome bumpers, wire wheels, mohair hood with zip rear window and in extremely good condition.

I bought this car a year ago (privately) and have since replaced several engine components (e. g. water pump, distributor components, spark plugs and cables, coil etc) as well as many other parts (e. g. new half tonneau cover, handle, window seals - and just installed two new headlights). Sadly now selling due to house move.

Body work in excellent condition for the year including the underneath of the car (sills etc).

The engine runs extremely well and as well as the 4 standard gears, this car has the Overdrive switch (used in 3rd and 4th gear) to enable further gear changes.

- 8 previous owners (according to V5C)
- Many invoices for various parts and fitting
- Several previous MOT certificates and V5C documents
- Believed to have been restored around 1990 (documentation not available) - and not driven in the rain since!
- Old (and oily) Haynes Manual
- various instruction books
- mileage as per odometer - unable to verify otherwise.
- Spare wire wheel in the boot

This really is a lovely example of the MGB Roadster. It looks special driving with the hood up - but very special with the hood down, half tonneau cover on and cruising along in the sunshine!
