AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This MG B is from the year 1977, originally delivered in England and brought to the Netherlands in 2014. The car is now 48 years old. A delightful car, one of the last MGBs with rubber bumpers, and the famous Rostyle wheels, with a lot of character.
Documents:
This MGB has a Dutch registration, the APK expired in 2014, and the car is exempt from road tax in the Netherlands. For an additional EUR 50, the car can be delivered with official EU Export Documents, making it easy for a new (foreign) owner to register the car in their country.
Bodywork:
A nice MGB, right-hand drive, in extensively original condition, painted in MG citron yellow, a color that is quite rare. Note that the color is difficult to photograph exactly; the car often appears more yellow in photos than in reality. The bodywork requires welding.
The underside is partly hard, not perfect, and clearly requires welding work. The left sill needs a little attention, as does the underside of the left door. The hood is old but still definitely usable.
Technical:
The MG is equipped with the very well-known MG four-cylinder engine with 1798 cc, 96 hp, and a manual four-speed gearbox with overdrive. This overdrive is operated by a switch on the gear lever, which sometimes behaves a bit unpredictably; sometimes it works, other times it doesn't. Technically, it needs to be looked at— the engine starts well, shifts smoothly, and brakes and steers properly. The lower suspension bushings need to be replaced. A large number of new parts are included.
Due to the standstill, a maintenance check is recommended, which applies to every used car. Some meters do not indicate properly, so it needs to be looked into, especially the electrical components. The availability of used and new parts for MGB models is excellent; almost everything is either used or new and available for purchase. The seller can advise you on this.
Interior
The interior is original and well maintained, with the upholstery in very good condition. Of course, there are signs of use, but overall it is very neat, featuring a beautiful dashboard and tidy door panels.
Transport:
The car is located in Hengevelde, Netherlands, and can naturally be picked up there. The car can be delivered within the Netherlands for an additional 150 euros (excluding VAT), excluding the Wadden Islands.
The seller can have the car delivered relatively inexpensively across the entire EU by a professional carrier.

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.
