Early 1966 MGB GT - overdrive + sunroof For Sale

British Racing Green MGB GT with leather seats, overdrive, full lenghth sunroof and wire wheels. This home market car was built Dec 65 - Jan 66 and registered 1st Feb 1966 making it one of the earliest of the 30 or so '66 BGT's on the road.

Ivor Searle engine about 12000 miles ago so nicely run in - revs and pulls beautifully. I've fitted a Motolita steeing wheel (the original banjo style wheel comes with the car) and hidden air horns (the car is a lot quicker than people think!) but otherwise nice and original looking.

A word about these cars - with Astons, E-Types, etc becoming out of most people's reach a good Mk 1 BGT is one of the best ways of enjoying the full 1960's GT sports car experience. The fact that they're so familiar can disguise how good a well-sorted one is. Flicking in and out of overdrive and really working the car on a good A or B with the sunroof open is a joyful experience, but the car is also reliable and practical enough to be a daily driver.
