Description from the seller
MG B 1.8 Roadster 1972
- Stunning color 'Leyland White'
- Original chrome bumpers
- Classic wire wheels
- Luggage rack and tow bar
- Overdrive
- Registered in the Netherlands since 1996
- Comfortable interior with heating, center armrest and leather steering wheel
- Fresh and rust-free example
- Technically well maintained
HISTORY:
The MG B: a popular sports car as it should be: lightweight, agile and a pleasure to drive. This Roadster concerns a very beautiful and fresh example finished nicely in Old English White with a black leather interior, original chrome bumpers and wire wheels with a classic appearance. It was produced in 1972 and was newly delivered in the United States (as was the case for the majority). The car has remained rust-free because of this. In 1996 the car was imported to the Netherlands, where it has been cherished by enthusiasts. The last owner used the car mostly for touring.
EXTERIOR:
The bodywork is very neat and rust- and damage-free. The paintwork catches the eye and is strikingly fresh. The rubber and lighting are also in good condition. The wire wheels have good tires and at the front red-painted brake pads give the car a sporty touch. Nice accessories are the luggage rack and tow bar. The original chrome bumpers are free of notable damage. The soft top is also in good condition without tears or damage, and the locking mechanism functions well.
INTERIOR:
The black interior is still very nice with no damage and exudes an English vibe. Because of the year of manufacture it has comfortable amenities, such as a center armrest and a beautiful three-spoke steering wheel covered in leather. The interior is further equipped with heating and the overdrive provides a pleasant "5th gear". The boot space offers room for the spare wheel.
TECHNICAL:
Under the hood it's a work of art to see: dry, clean and the engine block gleams at you. It is equipped with electric ignition, an oil cooler, alternator, Kenlowe, renewed front brake and clutch cylinders. In addition the exhaust has been renewed. Technically the MG is well maintained and starts, runs and shifts excellently. In short: a stunning example of a real driver's car from an iconic car ready for the summer to bring a smile to your face.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
