Vehicle Description

Introduced in May of 1962, the monocoque MG B was a welcome progression from the body-on-frame T-Series and MG A models that preceded it. The more modern construction resulted in weight savings (the car turned the scales at 2028lb), reduced manufacturing costs, and notably tauter handling.

Initially, the B was only available in Roadster form - the Pininfarina-penned hatchback GT derivative, with 2+2 seating (so they call it), not being offered until October 1965. At launch, the model was powered by a three-bearing version of the 1798cc B-Series engine that produced 95bhp at 5,400rpm. However, this unit was replaced by a five-bearing unit two years into production. The MkII model of 1967 brought an updated manual gearbox with revised ratios and synchromesh. By the time GT production ceased in 1980, a total of 125,282 are said to have been produced.

TTB 266M was built in 1973 and registered in January 1974. It was neither exported nor imported during it’s lifetime and sits in a beautiful condition (given that it’s 50 years old) ready to delight a new owner.

This cracking MGB GT has the preferred Manual Overdrive gearbox and whilst out on test drive performed just as she should with a strong engine and smooth gearbox with good oil pressure, a great entry level classic car that is ready for the summer months and show season. This is a car you’d be proud to take to events.

The paintwork displays a lovely sheen, and the interior is in good condition with no rips or tears, though it must be admitted that the 1970 colour scheme may not be to everyones taste but it is genuine and original.

The body work is solid with virtually no signs of rust or rot. Any inspection welcome!
