ITEM DESCRIPTION FROM SELLER
Ths is an MGB GT, manufactured in 1978, with rubber bumpers, Minilite wheels and a Webasto sun roof. 17779 miles on the clock.
A great example of this fun classic sports car, with leather seats.
I have owned the car for the past seven years and in that time added a new stainless steel exhaust, had a full service at the MG Workshop, with all tires replaced, new heated rear windscreen, and radio fitted. Overdrive functions properly, and she's done some journeys to Cambridge, Devon and London without any problems. There are no oil leaks from this vehicle as far as I can see.
I test drove the car last weekend and the engine started first time. It could do with an engine tune again, as it is running a bit rich for the summer. Engine oil and gearbox oil were changed two years ago and the car has not been used much since. Overall this MGB is in very good condition and is capable of driving short or long distances at modern speeds.
Cars like this need to be driven. It's time for a new owner to have the pleasure of looking after and motoring in this immensely fun little sports car.
Obviously this is a 48 year old British built car and there are some small bubbles of rust on the outer body work on the wings.
In with the spare tire is the original jack and spider wheel brace. Im including the MGB handbook, parts catalogue, restoration manual, service guid, owners workshop manual, and of course all photographs of its restoration and receipts for parts.
Any questions, please get in touch via eBay. The car is currently located in Essex, and viewing can be pre-arranged.
