MGB Cabriolet 1800 — 1969

Rarely well-restored and fine English classic. The fact that the restoration was done in 1982 by the current owner and the car is still as fine does not make the matter worse.

"One of the best MGB cars we have seen. The only downside to the car is that it has barely been used in the last ten years. However, it will be delivered newly inspected at the vehicle inspection within two weeks after the auction."

"One of the best MGB cars we have seen. The only downside to the car is that it has barely been used in the last ten years. However, it will be delivered newly inspected at the vehicle inspection within two weeks after the auction."

Description

The current owner bought the car in 1981, and it had then had two previous owners and driven just under 90000 km. He worked as a technician at Volvo's factory in Olofström and renovated the car at a screw and nut level for a year. When the car was ready in May 1982, his wife received it as a birthday present, and since then, it has been parked in the same garage in the villa and used for summer outings in fine weather. The car has now driven 124 290 km. According to the owner, it has never been parked outside or driven in the rain since 1982.

Condition

  • Mechanical condition:

    The car is completely renovated, technically, over the years. Engine, gearbox, brakes, bushings, exhaust system etc. look like new. The car feels almost like new when it is driven. A thick folder with documentation and receipts for everything that has been done is included with the car. The engine is 92 ps according to the car registry, but feels stronger. We will return here when/if we find out if it is updated.

  • Interior condition:

    Fresh carpets and flawless leather upholstery. Instruments and other details also in the best condition.

  • Exterior condition:

    The perfect paint job from 1982 without any scratches or damage must indicate excellent groundwork and a high-quality body from the beginning. The only remark is that the paint has lifted slightly at the joint against a chrome strip on one of the rear fenders (see picture, barely noticeable). The chrome and glass, among other things, are as excellent as the rest of the car.

    The car comes with a seat brown canvas top and tonneau cover (see picture, lying over the trunk lid in one photo). As the car has only been driven on sunny days, the convertible top has been down almost all the time. We raised the convertible top and took some pictures. It looks new, but it has some wrinkles from being stored. However, these decreased as the sun warmed the fabric and plastic.

  • General condition:

    A really nice car. Fresh in every detail. Even the oak wheels look like new. Opportunity for the picky car enthusiast.

Auction information

General information about the condition of the vehicles .
  • At this auction, many vehicles have been included in car collections and have been stored (mothballed) for a long time. For this reason, they are described from a collector's perspective and may need technical reviews and maintenance service - oil, battery replacement, new tires, brake review, etc. - before they can be used. .
  • During the auction days information about a vehicle may be updated up to the day before the auction ends. When you bid at the end of the auction period - and also if you have made an earlier bid - we therefore ask you to read the descriptions carefully, in case something has been changed due to new information.
Important to know before placing your bids!
  • Once you have called in an item and the reservation price is reached we want you to deposit the entire purchase amount into our client funds account before retrieval can take place.
  • When you need to retrieve a called in object we want you to examine it carefully. If you consider that the item does not match our description you do not need to complete the purchase. In this case the deposited purchase sum and the entry fee are refunded.
  • If you do not examine the item on the spot the call charge will be debited, but you do not have to complete the deal.
  • If you make the entire purchase exclusively at a distance you have 14 days to cancel, but must return the item at your own expense.
  • Your shipping costs and other costs are not reimbursed when the right of withdrawal is exercised. Swedish court applies.
  • For items that have not been collected within 14 days storage costs may be charged.
