1970' MG MGB

When it was launched in 1962, the MGB was considered by many to be the paradigm of the British sports car.
To the surprise of many enthusiasts, this MG, with its splendid lines, would be the last to be produced at the famous Abingdon factory.
The GT model presented here was introduced to the market in October 1965 and was an immediate success, as it was advertised as a 2+2 that could carry two additional passengers.
Although the rear seat was actually too small, it could be folded down and thus provide a generous platform for luggage with access through the large rear gate, making it a very practical sports car for the time, especially when compared to the less spacious roadster. two-seater.
With a four-cylinder engine with 1,799cc capacity and two SU carburetors, the MGB GT announced a power of 97 HP and a torque of 142 Nm at 5,500 rpm, but the recent complete replacement of the manifold and exhaust line with new ones in stainless steel conferred gives you a power increase of around 18 extra hp.
This example, which was classified with distinction as a Classic Car by the Portuguese Antique Automobile Club, was completely overhauled from A to Z, stands out for its excellent general condition and was even the subject of an article in the magazine Octógono do Maia MG Club.
It's definitely one of the five best MGBs on sale in Portugal
