1970 MG

B Roadster



What We Like

Classic styling, a simple yet comfortable cabin, spirited inline-four-cylinder engine, and sporty chassis are all great sports car characteristics incorporated into the MG B. This Roadster was re-sprayed in British Racing Green under the selling dealer and is reportedly mechanically stock. Highlights include vintage a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive, 14-inch wire-wheels, and a restrained interior trimmed in black with a matching black top. This MG B is ready to refresh your memory of great British motorcars via top-down drives in the countryside.

Seller Information

Vehicle History & Overview

The selling dealer acquired this MG B in November 2022 and immediately commissioned a re-spray in factory British Racing Green. This Roadster shows 36,200 miles, although true mileage is unknown. Appearing to be mechanically stock, notable factory equipment includes 14-inch wire-wheels and a four-speed manual transmission with overdrive. Two keys and a black convertible top boot are included.

The MG B was launched in 1962 and utilized a modern unibody chassis design. This chassis incorporated one of the first uses of crumple-zones designed to offer greater passenger crash protection. Power was provided by a carbureted 1.8L inline-four-cylinder engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. Braking was supplied via front disc brakes with dual-piston calipers and rear drums. Series production ended in 1980.
