Although the more glamorous chrome-bumper drop-top variant is the MG B that gets all the attention, in recent years interest (and values) of the hard-top GT model have been showing signs of significant growth.

The example presents beautifully with its maroon paintwork over black leather interior, having covered 98 748km indicated on the clock. The car has received a few refreshments and updates since it was acquired, being door alignment and some dent repair to make sure the car presents as good as it looks.

Several parts were also replaced and fitted, such as the ignition coil, vacuum hoses, thermostat, water pump, as well as a new battery. The carburettors have also received a slight tune, being stripped, and rebuilt. To ensure the car is road ready for its next custodian, the handbrake has been adjusted and the coolant system has been flushed, making this a get-in-and-go purchase.
