MG MGB Roadster

This MGB roadster was built at the very end of 1968 and first registered in March 1969, supplied new through University Motors Ltd, whose plaque remains on the dashboard. The Heritage Certificate backs up those details. It is finished in Tartan Red with a black interior and hood, and it keeps its original disc wheels, which are now increasingly hard to find.

The car has been extensively rebuilt over the years, with a documented history going back to 1987. Recent work includes Easy-Steer power steering in 2018, an engine rebuild with conversion to unleaded in 2021, and a new dashboard in 2023. In 2024 it was converted to a single 12v system and given a new cooling system, new brake and clutch cylinders, a reconditioned gearbox with overdrive, a new clutch and new seat belts.

The odometer shows approximately 61,000 miles, against 43,567 on the oldest MOT certificate in the file from 1987. Paperwork includes a list of work since 1987, old MOT certificates, a current MOT to March 2027, the V5C and a workshop manual.
