This MGB GT has been in the same family ownership since new, passing from father to son in 1997. The car has completed very little mileage in recent decades and has been in storage for the last 10 years until its recent recommissioning. The total mileage showing is believed correct at 54,675 miles although we do not have sufficient MOT history to warrant this. What we do know is that the car received an Ivor Searle reconditioned engine in 1999 and this engine has completed only 856 miles which makes this a very low mileage car.

In 2006 the car was also subject to a total body restoration which included new panels where required including two new front wings and a complete respray. The interior was also re-trimmed during the restoration and as the photographs will show the interior is superb, showing little wear and looking very fresh. The total cost of this restoration was £6,471.74.

The recent recommissioning process has included a new battery, new fuel pump, new clutch slave cylinder and a new alternator. A fresh MOT has been issued which is advisory free.

The car continues to present very well with the odd paint blemish, but otherwise in very good order. The underside is clean and in good condition.

With the prices of good chrome bumper cars now comfortably exceeding £10,000 it is inevitable that the rubber bumper prices are going to follow higher and this car in our view is excellent value for money given its low ownership and superb condition.
