About this car

This MGB GT comes from the last year of Abingdon production and has covered just 1,710 miles. It is a right-hand-drive, manual car with overdrive, and the 1.8-litre engine makes 95 bhp. It is finished in Brooklands Green over an orange 'deck chair' cloth interior with black trim, a very late-1970s combination.

First registered in September 1980, it has had one former keeper on record. It was supplied new through a Hackney dealer, and the original bill of sale, hire purchase agreement and early registration document survive. The service book shows a visit at 984 miles in April 1982, after which the car spent over three decades in garage storage. MOT history shows a slow climb from 1,348 miles in 2014 to 1,671 in 2021.

The original book pack is with the car, with an unused free-service voucher and evidence of the factory-applied rustproofing. A Heritage Certificate and V5C are included, along with invoices for recent work including a new battery and ignition, fuel sender, exhaust and brake items. The dealer lists it as just arrived and in preparation, with a service and MOT planned before sale and a fresh coat of chassis protection already applied. It is MOT and road tax exempt.
