The Appeal
In 1979, the Limited Edition MGB hit catalogues - the final production run for one of the UK's most beloved roadsters. Only 1,001 of this line were built, with unique styling elements such as special rims, decals, and a luggage rack cementing it as an undeniably refined variant of one of the world's most successful sports cars.
This has been kept to much of its original factory condition, with an all-black colour scheme complemented by those special features and a Moto-Lita steering wheel, married up to a perky 1.8L I4 engine that still carries all of the traditions of a great British sports car.
These Limited Edition MGBs have become highly desirable, and we're sure this one will be snapped up quickly!
