Seller's Notes

This MG B Roadster is a charming and engaging classic British open-top sports car, which is reportedly in highly original condition, having been kept in storage for the past 45 years. Under the bonnet sits a naturally aspirated 1.8-litre inline-four, which sends its power to the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. This left-hand drive example was originally a Canadian-market model, which has since been imported to Australia. The odometer indicates 395 miles, which the seller believes to be the genuine total. Build year: 1980 This MG B Roadster is finished in the eye-catching shade of Vermillion Red with contrasting black plastic bumpers, over a black vinyl-trimmed interior punctuated by chrome trim accents. It rides on a set of 14-inch chrome cross-spoke wire wheels fitted with Haida Runspirit tyres. Equipment includes push-out front quarter light windows, a four-spoke steering wheel, heater and ventilation controls, and an analogue clock. The car comes with a tonneau cover, a car bra, the service manual, two keys, the original sales invoice, and a selection of registration and certificate of insurance documents. Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. The seller states that the last maintenance was carried out in June 2026 at an indicated 390 miles. The seller reports that the car has undergone recommissioning since coming out of long-term storage. This left-hand drive MG B Roadster is an endearing and rewarding classic British open-top sports car, reportedly offered in highly original condition, having been kept in storage for 45 years. Presented in the striking shade of Vermillion Red, with characterful styling and a lively inline-four engine, it would make a notable addition to any marque enthusiast’s collection, and a wonderful companion for weekend drives and classic car show visits alike.
