The journey of the MGB in 1994

In 1994, this special left-hand drive spoon door MGB, built on 28 February 1964, found its way to the Netherlands. This beautiful example exudes the timeless charm of a classic sports car. In 1994, this MGB started a new chapter on a flat bottom. Here in the Netherlands, it is not just any classic car; it is an iconic appearance that revives the passion for British cars in our country.

Loving care: almost three decades in Dutch hands

The MGB has been in the hands of a caring Dutch owner for the past 29 years. This enthusiast has maintained the car with dedication, which is evident from the impressive amount of documentation that came with the car. This carefully maintained history tells the story of a car that has been treated with love and attention. In 1995, the MGB was subjected to a thorough maintenance service: the water pump was replaced, spark plug cables were renewed and the engine was given a major overhaul. As a result, the car remained in top condition and is still a technical masterpiece today.

Meticulously kept maintenance history

What makes this MGB extra special is that the previous owner kept detailed records of all the maintenance carried out, including the years. This meticulousness provides insight into the life of the car and shows the dedication with which it was cared for. In 2009, the MGB was even completely repainted, and now, fifteen years later, it still looks dazzling. The beautiful paintwork shines as beautifully as the day it rolled out of the spray booth, which is a testament to the craftsmanship and love that has gone into its maintenance.

MG and the MGB: a history of British excellence

MG is known for its lightweight and affordable sports cars that have captured the hearts of car enthusiasts the world over. The MGB, launched in 1962, quickly became one of the most successful classic cars ever to come out of England. With its timeless design, reliable performance and sheer driving pleasure, the MGB became an icon. This roadster was not only loved for its style, but also for its solidity and simplicity, which still makes it a favorite choice among classic car enthusiasts.
