Description
A rare opportunity is offered to purchase a stunning 1966 MGB Roadster. This car is reluctantly for sale by the present owner due to his intending return to New Zealand later this year, after living in Europe for 23 years.
The previous owner purchased the car as a "project" in 1995 and had a comprehensive rebuild by the highly respected Ashton Keynes Vintage Restoration, including new heritage body. The car travelled 7635 miles between 1995 and 2017, being housed in climate proof garaging between outings.
The car has been in the present ownership since Dec 2017, travelling 6,283 miles in 8 years, and again housed in climate proof garaging between outings around the Cotswold countryside. Current odometer reading (04/06/2025) is 13873.
The car had a new set of tyres in 2020 and has travelled 3,279 miles on these tyres.
Other sought after features:
Stunning British Racing Green paint
Black leather seats with white piping
Wood rimmed 3-spoke Moto-Lita Steering wheel
Steering column lock
Overdrive in good working condition
Sony 10 compact disc changer in boot
Radio/Cassette player
Battery isolating switch
Black soft top in "as new" condition
Partial tonneau cover for collapsed soft top

The car has been meticulously serviced by Ellison's garage in Ashton Keynes every 2 years and MOT acquired annually.
Comprehensive service records supplied.
This car is an absolute gem to drive and well worth consideration by any prospective purchaser of a classic 1960's MGB Roaster.
