Description
We are delighted to be able to offer this fabulous 1971 MGB Roadster for sale.
It has come directly to us from an old customer who has cared for it since 1999. He has now moved house, no longer has a garage and replaced it with a brand new Mg Cyberster in Old English white !! He asked us to find a good home for it where the new owner will get as much enjoyment from it as he did.
These really are great cars and one of my personal favourites. There are few other cars that are as much fun to drive and can bring a smile to your face even on an otherwise dull day !!. I have had a number of these over the years and this is one of the best to drive. The engine has been bored out to 1950 ccc which makes it much more nimble. I was severely tempted to keep it for myself but as I already have a '72 Gt in the same colour scheme it seemed excessive.
Finished in the classic colour palette of Old English white with a Navy interior. It has a Navy hood if the occasional shower catches you out and a more practical full navy tonneau for day to day use. It is also fitted with overdrive and the all important chrome wire wheels.
It comes with an enormous file which would keep the most avid enthusiast busy for some time. Included in this are ;
The original sales brochure
Original Service book / Passport ( The first service book is full and it has a second book which is almost full too)
Various photos (and even negatives)

SPM our local and highly regarded Jaguar & Classic car workshop have prepared it for sale and and have done a fully documented pre-delivery inspection, & service for us.. It has also had some very minor welding and been undersealed and Lanoguarded to protect it going forwards.
It has also just had a new Mot (With no advisories) and is ready for its new owner to enjoy.
I hate to use the old and overused adage that it needs to be seen to be believed. However this really is an incredible car and I very much doubt that you could find a nicer one.
Please come and see for yourself !!!
