The seller offers for sale this RHD 1975 MG MGB GT Jubilee Edition, equipped with a manual gearbox and a 1.8-litre four-cylinder petrol engine. Built as part of a limited run of 750 units marking the 50th anniversary of MG in 1974, this example left the factory on 28 August 1975 and retains its distinctive British Racing Green paintwork with gold stripes. The car starts easily, shows no smoke when warm and produces no unusual engine or gearbox noises. The body presents a solid base, though the paint displays age-related marks including flaking on the rear wings. The interior remains in good condition with clean upholstery, tidy dashboard and well-preserved trims, aside from some light moisture traces on the upper headliner. The car drives well, with a smooth transmission and responsive mechanicals. A valid technical inspection is present, and the MGB GT shows no accident history. Rust is limited to rear wings and wheels, consistent with the model’s age.
The MG BGT is a well-regarded British classic that blends sporting character with everyday usability. Introduced in the mid-1960s, the fastback GT offered a practical alternative to the MGB Roadster, featuring a Pininfarina-styled roofline, a useful rear hatch and improved cabin comfort. Its lively 1.8-litre engine, balanced chassis and communicative steering make it a favourite among enthusiasts who enjoy classic motoring with a hands-on driving feel. Jubilee Edition models are especially appealing due to their limited production and celebratory specification, giving them added desirability in today’s collector market. Known for accessible running costs and strong parts availability, the BGT continues to attract drivers seeking a charming and engaging classic car experience.
