32,000 miles from new

Sold for £9,281

(including buyers premium)


Lot details

Registration No: DDK 131W
Chassis No: GVGEJ1AG516767
MOT: June 2022

  • Dramatic Black with Black livery, extensive history file including the original 'Passport to Service'
  • Period 'Sport T Top' twin panel glass sunroof, four-speed manual plus overdrive gearbox
  • Engine converted to run on unleaded petrol and fitted with an aluminium undertray
  • Stand out from the MG B crowd with this low mileage and decidedly stylish GT

Introduced in 1965, the MGB GT was a more comfortable and versatile proposition than its roadster sister. With a top speed of over 100mph courtesy of its 1798cc B-series engine and a capable chassis featuring independent front suspension, rack and pinion steering and disc / drum brakes, the enclosed 2+2-seater merited the old MG marketing slogan 'Safety Fast'.

Finished in Black with Black leather upholstery, this smart looking GT is warranted to have covered just 32,000 miles from new (accruing less than 1,000 of those since 2006). Boasting a period ‘Sport T Top’ twin-pane glass sunroof, the 2+2-seater is described by the vendor as being in ‘very good’ (bodywork, paintwork, interior trim) or ‘excellent’ (1.8 litre engine, four-speed manual plus overdrive gearbox, electrical equipment) condition. Pleasingly retaining its full book pack including the ‘Passport to Service’ with six stamps, the MG is said to be ‘very nice underneath and in the engine bay’ with the latter sporting what appears to be an aluminium undertray. Converted to run on unleaded and reportedly ‘lovely to drive’, this striking GT is worthy of close inspection and offered for sale with V5C Registration Document, book pack, fresh MOT and numerous old MOTs / invoices.
