Beautiful, genuine MGB in Tartan Red with OEW original hardtop, sitting on pressed steel wheels. I have owned a number of classic cars over the years but have kept this MGB for 12 years due to it being completely reliable and therefore, so easy to live with and enjoy. Completely rebuilt to standard specification, other than sensible upgrades, between 1997 - 2000, on a British Heritage shell. I understand the rebuild was undertaken by a retired Engineer and on completion was MOT'd with zero miles, with nearly 19, 000 miles since completed. There are 2 large A4 files detailing the history including the rebuild, along with the MOT's to support the mileage. I purchased the car in 2012, from an enthusiast (who lived in the home once owned by the actor, Dirk Bogarde). I asked the respected specialist, MG Motorsport, to assess the car prior to purchase; their assessment was that I should buy the car and if I didn't, they would! I have used it quite regularly but generally for short pleasure trips over the years and it has never taken out when the roads have been either wet or salty. The excellent garage which maintains my cars have long said that it is the nicest, most genuine classic that they look after. It isn't concours but is nicely patinated. It has a MGOC valuation of £24, 000 but I believe a fair price to be £16, 495. Serious, proceedable buyers only please.
