With more than half a million units built between 1962 and 1980, the MG B is one of the most popular sportscars of all time and the inspiration for one of the '90s icons, the Mazda MX-5. To this day the MG B remains an attainable, fun classic car, but values have been rising, albeit slowly, and more attractive cars such as this neat chrome-bumper variant are heading only one way in terms of pricing.

MG B

The MG B was a relatively modern design at the time of its launch, using monocoque construction and compared with its predecessors (and rivals at the time), boasted a comparatively spacious cabin and usable boot.
