Testimonials

"I recently purchased a vehicle from Jesmond and found the whole process to be a great experience. I found Jesmond to be a very obliging and forthright person to deal with and felt quite quickly, that he is a man of integrity. He was very accommodating and allowed me all the time I required in making my purchase, never at any time did I feel pressured or unduly influenced in any way. Having said that he did take the time to find out what my needs and wants were regarding my vehicle purchase and was able to steer me on the right path with his vast knowledge of European cars until I was able to decide clearly what it was that I wanted. Once I had made my choice of vehicle he supplied me with all of the relevant history on it (where it originated from, work history etc) and familiarised me with the vehicle covering its performance and general running and how to get the best out of it. He encouraged me to get a check on the car prior to purchase and informed me of the best agents and automotive engineers that were locally available. His obvious love and passion for his vehicles and European vehicles in general came across strongly and only enhanced my faith in him and the car I was considering to purchase. When the sale was made and upon uplifting the vehicle I was delighted to find a full tank and a bottle of wine included. A nice touch. In short I found Jesmond a very professional and amiable person to deal with and would have no hesitation doing further business with him and would recommend him to anyone that could benefit from what he has to offer."

      Description

       

      The MGB is Britain's most popular classic car with good reason: it's widely available; has great parts and specialist support; and as long as you're not too demanding an owner, they are really good fun to drive.

      And let's be honest, that B-series engine sounds good when rasping through the exhaust system.

      ABOUT THIS CAR

      • This is a tidy example – its rare too being an automatic.We understand under 400 of these were manufactured.
      • Drives really nice.
      • Basic and solid, everything works as it should.
      • Comes with Cool Sliding Ragtop Roof
      • Nice tidy interior – all original.
      • These wee cars had good solid engines, known and much loved in the MG fraternity. It's strong, easy to work on and simple to tune with good club support.
      • This is actually a very nice car. Albeit no history nor restoration records are available, this car obviously had some restoration work at some point in its life...like its clear that the upholstery, carpets, door cards etc have been redone. No doubt its had plenty of engine and mechanical work over the years. The body is also very straight and the paint is lovely.
      • Good tires on wires.

      The MGB was an epochal car for MG.

      When launched in 1962, a up to-the-minute specification meant it was a delight to drive compared with its rivals, as well as being a significant step forward from the MGA.

      During its 18-year production run, it became the world's best-selling sports car and since it went out of production in 1980 (by which time, it was already a classic), an entire support industry has grown up around it.

      In 1980, the MGB came to an end - and its second life as the world's favourite classic car began in earnest.

      Car will be sold WOF’d and Registered.
