Introduced in May of 1962 the monocoque MG B was a welcome progression from the body on frame T Series and MG A models that preceded it. The more modern construction resulted in weight savings, the car turned the scales at 2028lb, reduced manufacturing costs and notably tauter handling.

Initially the B was only available in Roadster form with the Pininfarina designed hatchback GT derivative not being offered until October 1965. At launch the model was powered by a three bearing version of the 1798cc B Series engine that produced 95bhp at 5400rpm. However this unit was replaced by a five bearing unit two years into production. The MkII model of 1967 brought an updated manual gearbox with revised ratios and synchromesh. By the time GT production ceased in 1980 a total of 125,282 are said to have been produced.

TTB 266M was built in 1973 and registered in January 1974. It was neither exported nor imported during its lifetime and sits patiently in a beautiful condition ready to delight a new owner. This cracking MGB GT has the preferred Manual Overdrive gearbox and whilst out on test drive performed just as she should with a strong engine and smooth gearbox with good oil pressure. It's a great entry level classic car that is ready for the summer months and show season.

This is a car you would be proud to take to events. The paintwork displays a lovely sheen and the interior is in good condition with no rips or tears though it must be admitted that the 1970 colour scheme may not be to everyone's taste but it is genuine and original. The body work is solid with virtually no signs of rust or rot , amazing for a 50 year old car. Any inspection is welcome.
