Registered in September 1975, this is a factory MGB GT V8, with MG V8 Register verification certificate confirming its production details. Its odometer shows 32,853 miles and its last MoT expired in November 2015. However, as an historic vehicle, it is now MoT-exempt. The vendor reports that it ‘sounds awesome and drives lovely’. The extensive history file contains over £19,000 of invoices including, in recent years, a carburettor service kit, new fuel pump, rear bumper, brake discs, clutch master and slave cylinders, servo, stainless steel exhaust, Hi-Torque starter motor, and Powerspark distributor. The inner and outer sills and both rear quarters were replaced by the MG Owners' Club. Also recently done are the stub axles, springs, brake master cylinder and Poly bush roll bar.
Other paperwork besides the invoices includes the current and previous V5Cs, two owner's handbooks, photos, MoT certificates back to 1992 and even a City of Westminster parking permit from 2014. The MG also comes with a spare set of keys.
