Facts about the model

In the late 1950s, the project for the MGB began as a successor to the MGA. In September 1962, the new roadster was unveiled and received positive reviews from both the automotive press and buyers. The 1798 cm³ engine with dual SU carburetors provided impressive performance. The transmission was four-speed, but for a modest extra fee, buyers could opt for an electric overdrive.

Starting in 1965, the technology improved with a five-bearing crankshaft, an oil cooler as standard, and an electric tachometer. Two years later, a six-cylinder engine was also introduced in the small car, available with or without a roof.

For the 1970 models, the radiator received a new look, and Rostyle aluminum wheels replaced the steel wheels. Wire wheels could always be ordered throughout the years.

The model also saw the addition of a V8 engine from Rover. Production continued until 1981. Later variants were produced, and it’s still possible to build a new car today, with a wide range of new bodies and parts available. This is a beloved and cherished model that never goes out of style.
