Vehicle Description
This 1979 MGB reminds you that the best British drop-tops delivered
an engaging driving experience without breaking the bank. So it's
time to hit the road in a car that's stylish, vintage, and truly
made for enthusiasts.
The MGB is one of those cars that everyone loves to see because
they know it's built for pure pleasure. The compact proportions are
ideally suited for carrying two passengers, and there's no extra
fat to steal performance. But being svelte doesn't mean missing out
on style. Good body panels let the bright full-length trim look
almost like an unbroken line. The rear luggage rack is the perfect
British sports car accessory. And you even have the iconic Rostyle
wheels. The white paint shows the right signs of likely being the
factory application. It's attractive but far from perfect... and
you likely want it that way. It keeps this a car that's ready for a
drive at a moment's notice. After all, the best back roads have
loose stones, and not all of us want to worry about every pebble on
the pavement. Plus, the full story on this one is how there's an
appealing black contrast with the rubber bumpers and a brand-new
folding roof.
The black interior has an inviting presentation that was made to
engage you. It's in the grip of the sports steering wheel,
placement of the stick shift, and crisp Smiths gauge with large
speedo and tach. It really reinforces the driving attitude, right
down to details like the clean trunk with a full-size spare. You
may choose to upgrade the stereo, replace some weather stripping,
or other details, but from day one, you'll be pleased with its
clean and complete style.
The engine bay is well-presented with the 1798cc four-cylinder
looking like a well-maintained classic. It fires up eagerly and
runs strong. The four-speed manual transmission, power brakes,
front discs, and nimble steering are all part of a terrific package
that puts you in the center of the action.
This is the iconic affordable roadster that has the exact setup for
those who love to drive. So if the open road is calling, answer it
with this MGB.
