Purchased new by the vendor's late husband, this MGB was his company car, which he then kept as his weekend car when replaced. A very solid and original example the MGB comes with all receipts for maintenance during his ownership, MOT certificates and tax discs. A recent service has been carried our by Steve McKie Sport Cars costing £866. A fantastic opportunity to purchase a one owner from new example which runs and drives well.
