Every right minded enthusiast should have an MGB at some time in their life. It is at this point that they will appreciate that a classic car doesn’t need to cost a fortune to run, break down all the time or be slow and uncomfortable.
There are a host of very good reasons why the model has remained so enduringly popular and before anyone dismisses them because of their popularity, they should own one first.
With eye-catching bright blue paintwork, Minilite-style alloy wheels and fitted with a Webasto-type fabric sunroof, this 1980 example has been driven some 70 miles to the sale. It now requires a few small jobs for its MOT, the vendor confirming that it has provided reliable transport for the last 18 months. With far too many cars now sitting on his drive, this is amongst those that must go.
