In 1973 this B GT V8 in Damask Red was delivered to its first owner in Glasgow, by the dealer Appleyard Limited. The expert then immediately knows that that colour is exactly the colour that still adorns the car today. It becomes even better when you know that this car was actually delivered with a V8.
The GT you see here is one of only 1,856 cars with a V8 engine produced. This means that the car you see here is able to make many hearts of classic car enthusiasts beat faster.
The car was delivered on August 14, 1973, and we know this because that information can be found in the Heritage Trust Certificate that came with the car.
The previous Dutch owner was more than happy with his car, but according to him it could be even better, the MG is equipped with a 4.6 HSE engine, which, as you will understand, has a lot more power, and driving this MG makes for a real party. Of course, the entire brake system has also been addressed, and the chassis has also been adapted to the power of this car.
In order to be able to properly use the power on the asphalt, the gearbox has also been considered, this is now a manual 5-speed gearbox that shifts wonderfully and makes driving this car even more enjoyable.
Before the 4.6 HSE engine was installed in the car, it was completely overhauled and made ready for use. We have invoices for all work that confirm that this car has been completely prepared. More than €45,000 has been invested since 2014 to bring the MG into this condition.
The GT is in optimal condition and you can see that when you look at the bodywork. The paint is very nice and the bodywork is sleek and intact. Beautiful fits characterize the hinged parts and the chrome work is also as it should be.
The GT has a beautiful interior with very nice and comfortable seats. It combines great with the warm red paint! The interior is very beautiful. The dashboard, with the well-known Smiths meters, is in top condition, all buttons are just as beautiful and the steering wheel and lever are also complete without any signs of wear.
The car comes with the Heritage Trust Certificate, as well as the invoices for the work, and last but not least, the original British Leyland Passport.
A great and rare B GT V8 4.6 in a condition where the real enjoyment begins as soon as you turn the key.
