Ask classic car enthusiasts what defines a sports car, and opinions will vary. At Gallery Aaldering, thousands of people visit each year. When it comes to a classic sports car for the masses, we simply cannot ignore the legendary B. And then there’s the MG B GT V8 with a true eight-cylinder engine. With a car like this, there’s only one thing we want to do: drive!
The MG B GT V8 is an iconic sports car for a reason, combining the best of British automotive engineering with the power and flair of a V8 engine; it’s simply the perfect mix. As a classic sports car enthusiast, you will immediately be charmed by this unique version of the iconic MGB, which, with its timeless design and impressive performance, leaves a lasting impression.

Unlike the standard 1800cc four-cylinder, this MGB GT V8 is equipped with a 3.5-liter V8 engine that takes the car to the next level. The engine delivers a modest 137 hp, but with its generous amount of torque, this classic manages a sprint to 100 km/h in just 7.7 seconds, with a top speed of 200 km/h. This makes the driving experience dynamic and refined, just as you would expect from a classic British sports car. The deep, rumbling sound of the V8 engine adds to the driving pleasure and makes every ride a thrilling experience.

The chassis and suspension of the MG B GT are perfectly tuned to the power of the V8, ensuring balanced handling and good stability. This car invites you to seek out winding roads and enjoy the precise steering and excellent road holding. The fun factor is undeniable, and even though this car is nearly 50 years old, everything still feels solid and reliable.

This particular example has undergone restoration and refurbishment work in the past and has been carefully modified for even better performance. The car has been converted to left-hand drive and fitted with Wilwood brakes for extra stopping power, a fast camshaft for improved performance, and Spax shock absorbers for even tighter handling. The Britax sunroof and Revolution alloy wheels not only add aesthetic value but also enhance the driving experience.

The exterior of this MG B GT V8 is sleek and tidy, with minimal signs of use that reflect careful ownership. The car has been repainted in the past and remains in beautiful condition, with the blue color adding a sporty touch in combination with its classic lines and elegant appearance. The interior is simply stunning, with beautifully upholstered seats that are extremely comfortable and a dashboard that is clean and impeccably finished. The instruments are in excellent condition, and the carpets look fantastic.

What makes this car extra special is the extensive documentation that comes with it. This immediately shows that the car was in the hands of enthusiasts. The history is well documented, going back at least 30 years with a wealth of receipts. We find the original manual, brochures, a parts book, photos of the restoration work, recent invoices showing that the car has been meticulously maintained, and everything has been carefully documented. This documentation goes back many years, which is wonderful to see. We also see various club memberships from car clubs, such as the MG Club, as well as receipts and documentation for the modifications that have significantly improved the car in all areas. In short, a fantastic history.
