The MGB entered the market as a two-door sports car produced from 1962 to 1980 by the British Motor Corporation (BMC), later the Austin-Morris division of British Leyland, as a four-cylinder sports car with soft top. Later variants such as the MGB GT three-door 2+2 coupe (1965-1980), the six-cylinder sports car and coupe MGC (1967-1969), and the eight-cylinder 2+2 coupe, the MGB GT V8 (1973- 76) entered the market.

This 1979 MGB began life in the UK and was professionally built by a specialist as/with Sebring specification like the Works MGBs. It was imported to the Netherlands in 2011 and used only for touring in the summer. The condition of the car is excellent in all areas and it really is in like-new condition. Extremely well maintained.

Many people do not know that an Alloy Rover V8 is lighter than the original 4-cylinder engine with twice the power, making for a very drivable, reliable and easy to drive car. An ideal affordable all-round historic high-performance car.

Some highlights:
- Low mileage 3.5L engine
- Holley carburettor
- Stainless steel headers
- Electronic lumen ignition
- Double electric cooling fan
- Cibie fog lights
- LT77 Gearbox
- Front adjustable AVO telescopic dampers
- Spax Telescopic dampers rear
- Limited slip differential
- Very lightweight car with fibreglass wings, carbon fibre door panels and aluminium bonnet
- Very high build quality

The interior has been replaced with the following:
- Roll cage
- Black suede-lined dashboard
- Carbon fibre door panels & centre console
- Corbeau bucket seats with 4-point harness
- Sparco pedals & gear lever

In terms of documentation, various invoices and inspections are present, both English and Dutch. In addition, there are registration papers, photos of the MGB through the years and more!

A very unique and impressive MGB GT V8, for only a fraction of the restoration and preparation costs!
