The seller offers for sale a 1972 MG MGB 1.8 Roadster featuring a manual transmission and a petrol-powered 1.8 liter four-cylinder engine.

The body presents well for its age and benefits from a new windshield, new soft top, and new tyres. The car has been serviced and checked for brakes, hoses, and related components.
