The seller offers for sale this 1973 MG MGB, powered by a 1798 cc four-cylinder petrol engine, paired with a manual transmission. This is a desirable chrome-bumper MGB cabriolet finished in white over a black interior, the configuration most prized by enthusiasts of the model. The seller has owned the car for around four years as its second owner and indicates a taxation value of EUR 18,500, and the car presents as a tidy and attractive example of this enduring British classic.
The MGB was produced from 1962 to 1980 and became one of the most successful sports cars of its era, with hundreds of thousands built and a thriving owners’ and parts scene to this day. Its monocoque construction was advanced for its time, doing away with the separate chassis of its predecessors, while the robust 1798 cc B-series engine gave relaxed, dependable performance. The early chrome-bumper cars, built before the heavier rubber-bumper revisions of the mid-1970s, are widely regarded as the purest and most handsome expression of the design.
With its clean lines, comfortable open-top cabin and easy character, the MGB is one of the most accessible and rewarding classics to own and use. It is equally at home on a weekend tour or a club gathering, and its combination of timeless styling and outstanding parts availability has kept it a perennial favourite. This white chrome-bumper cabriolet is a charming example of a car that defined affordable open-top motoring.
