About this car

This 1978 MGB GT is the fixed-head version of Britain's best-selling postwar sports car, with Pininfarina-styled coupe bodywork and a usable hatchback boot. It uses the familiar 1.8-litre B-series four-cylinder driving the rear wheels.

It is finished in red with a grey and blue interior. The gearbox is a four-speed manual with overdrive, which makes long runs more relaxed. The page gives a mileage of 69,000 and doesn't list further history details.
