Description
Smart,
restored '71 B with much to offer the new owner this summer
Dating
from February 1971 this spanking looking MGB Roadster is finished in Old English
White and was driven up to us by the vendor from South Wales, reputedly not
missing a beat with excellent oil pressure.
Restored, we are told by Yorkshire Restorations, the car has seen
limited use since, just c.1,800 miles and looks well with shining brightwork,
decent paint finish (we noticed the boot shows some micro-blistering in some
lights), restored Rostyle wheels, lovely hood and smart
interior.
Under the bonnet, we find the typical
B-series 1.8 litre four-pot in standard tune with power being sent to the rear
wheels via four-speed manual transmission with Overdrive.
The history file for this pretty little B includes the V5C, four
old MOTs (although exempt, it had a clean MOT in 2022 which just expired in May
2023 with only a handful of miles covered since), and a few bills including last
service also by Yorkshire restorations in 2019 and another from them in 2017 for
£880 worth of bits and pieces of trim/parts.
We are
told the mileage showing of c.73700 miles is thought to be genuine, but there is
insufficient history to back this up – that aside, this certainly looks a
cracking bit of kit that presents very well and looks to run as it
should.
