Technical Data

Special Editions & Collector Models

The 1980 Limited Edition is particularly sought after by collectors. This edition adds a touch of exclusivity with unique features and distinctive design.

Buying Guide and Weaknesses

The MGB is known as a reliable classic, but it requires some attention. Areas like sills and the underbody are prone to rust. Be cautious of uneven gaps in doors that could indicate body deformation. The engine and transmission are robust, though noises might suggest a need for an overhaul. Good supply of spare parts makes maintenance easier, but beware of aftermarket parts that often require adjustments.

Engine and Driving Experience

The four-cylinder engine is famed for its durability and offers solid performance. The (often synchronized) 4-speed transmission, combined with independent front suspension, delivers a sporty driving experience that enthusiasts love.

Interior and Design

The interior exudes authentic retro charm with enough comfort. Features like the elegant wood steering wheel and optional leather seats highlight the classic character. The MGB GT Coupé's design received input from Pininfarina.

Summary

The MG MGB B Series IV offers pure driving pleasure and is a must-have for lovers of British roadsters. Its technical simplicity makes it easy to maintain, and its cult status presents potential for value appreciation. A worthy investment for passionate classic car collectors!
