Introduced in 1962, the MGB Roadster enjoyed an eighteen-year production run. With nicely balanced handling and a good turn of speed, it merited the old MG marketing slogan 'Safety Fast'. Based around a monocoque chassis featuring independent coil-sprung front suspension and a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle, its 1798cc 'B' series four-cylinder engine was allied to a four-speed manual transmission. Capable of over 100mph, the provision of front disc brakes and rack-and-pinion steering greatly aided control.

This home-market MG B Roadster was manufactured in 1967 and first registered in the United Kingdom on the 11^th of August the same year. Presented in the attractive colour combination of Primrose Yellow with Black interior upholstery, ‘XJH 463F’ is accompanied by a soft-top all also trimmed in Black. Fitted with the aforementioned 1798cc straight-four engine mated to the four-speed manual gearbox, the MG has been in the ownership of just three people since 1989. Benefitting from much improvement while in the current ownership, the MG has received a replacement speedometer (at 66,631 miles); carburettor overhaul and engine tuning; head gasket replacement; a new radiator; a new master cylinder; electronic ignition; front brake calipers and servicing. Offered with a history file which includes a large selection of service and parts of invoices, previous MOT certificates back to 1999, a photograph album of the restoration, and a current V5C document.
