LOW MILEAGE

ONLY 9754kms (6060 MILES)

Orange MGB Roadster with denim look grey & blue fabric, a truly groovy 80s combo!

a genuine low-mileage, exceptionally well-cared-for example that has lived its entire life in dry storage. This is one of those rare survivors that still feels fresh out of the factory: no sun damage to the plastics, even the vin tag itself shows a price of the original plastic film still remaining around the rivet (see pics)

The vibrant orange paint on this facelift MGB is deep and glassy and never resprayed. The black soft-top is supple, leak-free and folds away in seconds, turning this little roadster into the perfect weekend drive sports car.

Under the bonnet is the familiar 1. 8, four-cylinder with twin SU carburettor set up and stock exhaust sytem
Smooth, responsive and reliable after decades of gentle use and meticulous maintenance.

Inside you’ll find the original cloth seats with no wear, clear ‘Smiths’ gauges and good non-perished dash and steering wheel.
The carpets are unmarked and everything operates exactly as MG intended. Low mileage means the engine, gearbox and rear axle are still tight, the brakes pull straight, the suspension feels firm yet comfortable and the car starts on the button every time.

Dry-stored classics like this one simply don’t come around often. Whether you want a show-ready weekend toy, a reliable classic to enjoy on the weekend or simply the purest, most affordable way into proper British sports-car ownership, this Orange MGB is turn-key and ready for its next chapter.

This is a special car that deserves someone who will maintain the high level of care that it has been treated to throughout its life.

This 1981 MGB is offered as part of a private eight-car collection that is now being sold in its entirety. The collection consists of a carefully curated selection of classic MGs, together with one beautiful Morgan.

If you are interested in acquiring the complete collection, please get in touch.
