The Appeal
One of the most highly prized classics out there - and easily one of the most enduring. The MG B represents a time when the roadster was a quintessentially British art, and one that MG utterly excelled at. Agile, attractive and perky, the MG B is an out-and-out gem.
This beautiful 1969 example comes to us in fine order, with a handsome, rare Snowberry livery and a history of enthusiast ownership - which spans nearly a quarter of a century. This European market car is ready and waiting for its lucky new owner, and we've no doubt it'll impress.
