INFORMATION

 

A high quality, fully restored 1971 MGB Roadster with much to offer the new owner along with a fresh clean MOT.

Dating from February 1971, this stunning looking 1971 MGB Roadster is finished in Old English White and was subject to a restoration by Yorkshire Restorations in 2017 that included a bare metal re-paint, gapped up correctly, detailed engine bay, rebuilt engine and a new interior.

YBT 197J has seen limited use since the restoration, just c.1,800 miles and presents extremely well with shining brightwork, gleaming paint work, restored Rostyle wheels, lovely hood and a very smart interior that includes vinyl seats with white piping, MG rubber floor mats and a Tourist Trophy leather steering wheel. 

Under the bonnet, we find a show condition B-series 1.8 litre four-pot in standard tune with power being sent to the rear wheels via four-speed manual transmission with Overdrive. A set of new Dunlop Sport Classic tyres are fitted along with a twin exhaust system.

The history file for this loverly MGB Roadster includes the V5C, four old MOTs, fresh MOT valid until August 2024 without advisory and a few bills including last service also by Yorkshire Restorations in 2019 and another from them in 2017 for £880. A British Motor Museum Heritage Certificate is also present.

The car also comes with a complete set of new weather gear.

YBT 197J is trurly a stunning example and is one of the best that we have driven in a long time. 

This Classic Motor vehicle is UK Road Tax, MOT and ULEZ exempt.
 

Please register your interest early.
