Description

1968 MGB Roadster 1. 8 Manual, finished in iconic British Racing Green with a beautifully trimmed cream leather interior, featuring green piping and matching carpets. Further complemented by a black mohair hood, chrome wire wheels and the highly desirable addition of power steering.

Built in 2016 by CCHL of Hull using a brand new British Motor Heritage bodyshell, together with a remanufactured Ivor Searle 1800 engine and overdrive gearbox, this MGB has covered just over 1300 miles since completion.

Beautifully presented throughout, this is a wonderfully sorted example that retains all the charm of a classic MGB whilst benefiting from a comprehensive rebuild and a number of carefully considered upgrades. The addition of power steering makes the car particularly easy and enjoyable to drive, whilst the overdrive gearbox allows for relaxed touring.
