Introduced in 1962, the MG B Roadster enjoyed an 18-year production run. With nicely balanced handling and a good turn of speed, it merited the old MG marketing slogan 'Safety Fast'. Today, it enjoys a very strong following and with its GT sister has spawned a dedicated support industry.
Reportedly treated to an engine overhaul in 1991 at an indicated 90,000 miles and further improvement works later that same decade, 'HGA 919N' was put into dry storage during 2001 where it remained until acquired by the vendor. The subject of an extensive, post-hibernation bodywork restoration including conversion from rubber to chrome bumpers, the MG has also benefited from the fitment of a new luggage rack, hood / tonneau cover, wire wheels and upgraded interior complete with Red-piped Black seats, Red carpets, wood-rim steering wheel and wood veneer dashboard / centre console. Recommissioned via a major service, the Roadster is offered for sale with a detailed list of parts replaced during the 1990s, numerous old MOTs / invoices and photographs of the bodywork refurbishment. Showing five previous keepers to its V5C document and displaying 103,878 miles, 'HGA 919N' possesses a current MOT certificate valid until September 2016.
