The MG B: a popular English sports car as it should be: lightweight, agile and a joy to drive. This roadster stands out for its distinctive colour combination: two-tone paintwork in dark blue over silver, beige leather interior and a dark blue hood. It was produced in 1975 and delivered new in the United States. Thanks to the sunny climate, the car has been well preserved. In 2024, the car was imported to the Netherlands, where it was restored by an enthusiast. The engine compartment is a work of art to behold. The interior has also been restored in excellent condition and exudes an English atmosphere with the classic dashboard, beautiful counters and beautiful wooden/aluminium steering wheel. The interior has heating and an added overdrive that provides a pleasant ‘’5th gear‘’. Other interior features include a 12V socket, clock and radio/CD player. The boot is also very neat and accommodates the spare wheel. The original RO-style wheels are fitted with good Vredestein tyres. The car drives and shifts excellently. The car comes with the instruction booklet and luggage rack. In short: a fine example of an iconic car in a distinctive and eye-catching design.


General information about the MG B
The MG B succeeded the MG A in 1963, a car that was already quite popular for MG - part of The British Motor Company (BMC) - with over 100,000 units. The MG B would be produced until 1980, and even more of these were eventually produced than of the A: over half a million units. Besides the roadster, other variants were also produced such as the MG B GT three-door 2+2 coupé (1965-1980), the six-cylinder MG C (1967-1969), and the eight-cylinder MG B GT V8. With its 1.8-litre engine and 95 hp, the MG B was a lot more powerful than the 1.6-litre MG A. In addition to performance and handling, the MG B had to score highly in terms of safety and affordability. This combination made the car a great success. The bodywork is self-supporting and the low centre of gravity and use of aluminium body parts ensure a low weight of 970 KG and a high degree of agility. The independent suspension system then adds to comfort. In short: a great success in the height of the British car industry. An ideal classic for touring, holiday driving or just to cherish.
