MG MGB Roadster - SOLD
On offer is one of the very last genuine chrome bumper MGB Roadsters, registered in August 1974. Finished in Damask red it is very striking when complimented by the period looking Minilte style wheels.
Having been recommissioned recently by us and having the few MoT advisories attended to, the car is in very good condition and offers a low cost entry into MG ownership. Extensive history from marque specialists demonstrates diligent care and maintenance. Indeed, the car extensively restored in 2014, photos of the restoration are included in the history.
The accompanying Heritage certificate shows that the car was first sold to a staff member having been converted from export specification to UK RHD home market. View by appointment on Wednesdays, Fridays or Saturdays. (*am only)

Apart from our accurate and reliable description of this car we believe you will not find a better bunch of chaps to deal with; we know our MGs inside out, we won’t flannel you with sales speak and we aim to provide you with a car that you will be bringing back in a year’s time when the next service and MOT is due, no sooner! However, if you do have a problem we will stand by our car and help you in every way possible. We like to think that 38 years in this business counts for something.
