The sale car is surely the only MGB to have circulated the Nürburgring in the hands of motorsport legends Walter Röhrl and Hans Stuck, and carry their signatures. An original factory V8, it has latterly been owned by a property developer who is understood to have had the car modified `regardless of expense'. The engine is now of 3.9-litres and equipped with; Edelbrock manifold and carburettor; fast road camshaft; and special air filter and fuel pump - it apparently delivers 200bhp at the wheels. The unit drives through an uprated clutch, five-speed Rover LT77 gearbox and Cardan propshaft to Pirelli 195/65x15 tyres on Minilite alloy wheels. The sporting specification also includes: uprated adjustable suspension with Spax dampers; drilled brake discs and fast road pads; alloy cooling system; Clive Wheatley stainless steel big bore exhaust; bucket seats and four-point Scroth harnesses; H7 gas headlights; Becker audio; Brantz Tripmeter; sunroof; FIA papers. A lot of trackday / fast road fun for the money.
