Powered by the famous 1,798 cm³ four-cylinder engine and featuring a classic rear-wheel-drive layout, it quickly established itself as one of the most iconic British roadsters of its era. Produced until 1980, with over half a million units built across all versions, the MGB owes its success to the elegance of its lines, the simplicity of its mechanics and its driving pleasure. This 1973 model belongs to the so-called ‘Chrome Bumper’ generation, predating the adoption of the bulky black bumpers fitted to later models. It thus retains the classic MGB look with a chrome grille and chrome bumpers. This car is finished in red with a black interior featuring red piping. The engine has been fully restored. Features and specification: - spoked wheels; - chrome bumpers with bump stops; - chrome grille; - three-spoke wooden steering wheel; - full instrument cluster; - black upholstery with red piping; - centre console; - black soft top; - chrome exterior wing mirrors. The bodywork is in good overall condition. The chrome trim shows signs of wear consistent with the vehicle’s age. The interior is well presented overall. However, the upholstery shows signs of wear, creases and cracks, particularly visible on the front seat cushions. Odometer reading: 48,840 km – not guaranteed. The vehicle is sold in its current condition, as presented at the pre-sale viewing. Given its age, signs of wear and tear, defects, previous restorations, repairs or modifications may be present.
