Description
1972 MG B Roadster Manual Overdrive in Blaze Orange, Introduced in 1962, the MGB Roadster enjoyed an eighteen-year production run. With nicely balanced handling and a good turn of speed, it merited the old MG marketing slogan Safety Fast. Based around a monocoque chassis featuring independent coil-sprung front suspension and a leaf-sprung live rear axle, its 1798cc B series four-cylinder engine was allied to a four-speed manual transmission. Capable of over 100mph, the provision of front disc brakes and rack-and-pinion steering greatly aided control. Finished in Blaze Orange and with only 4 former keepers showing on the V5C, NPA 269L was supplied new by University Motors Ltd of Surrey. The Roadster was the subject of a lot of expense in 2007 and 2013. In 1992, the car was given a mechanical overhaul by Pegasus Classics. There has also been a previous engine overhaul of the 1950cc engine with its stage 3 head. Over the years the MGB has benefitted from a number of improvements, including a Kenlowe fan, 4 new tyres and a new battery last year. Fast road specification Bilstein front shock absorbers have also been fitted at some stage. Accompanying the MG is a collection of photographs of the engine, a large collection of invoices dating back to 1973, the original passport to service, handbook, workshop manual, an original sales invoice and a collection of old MOTs. NPA 269L also benefits from having a Heritage Certificate on file. The car drives very well with everything working as it should, good oil pressure and a smooth operating overdrive. With the largest owners club in the world and a parts availability to match MGs are a great entry into the classic car world. This car is an ideal starter classic. An older restoration which is standing the test of time this MGB is ready to be enjoyed in the upcoming summer months. You will not be disappointed with this wonderful classic and viewing is highly recommended. This is a vehicle that any enthusiast would be very proud
