Description

78' MGB in green.

Great little car, a joy to drive.

This example is in working order. Has a WOF & reg till late October.

The 1.8L, 4 cylinder engine provides enough power for NZ streets. 4 speed manual transmission. Able to comfortably cruise at 80-90 kph (we have done some mortorway driving) Soft top in good health. Near new tyres. Bluetooth radio.

Being an almost 50 year old car, it does have it's quirks and will be an ongoing project to some degree. Speedo has recently gone out.

Improvements made during our ownership include:

  • New centre console
  • New brake lines
  • New electronic distributor
  • New cooling fans
  • New clutch slave cylinder

These have all improved the drive and reliability of this car. Previous owners have also kept it well maintained.

Located in East Auckland.
