Introduced in 1962, the MGB Roadster enjoyed an eighteen-year production run. With nicely balanced handling and a good turn of speed, it merited the old MG marketing slogan 'Safety Fast'. Based around a monocoque chassis featuring independent coil-sprung front suspension and a leaf-sprung 'live' rear axle, its 1798cc 'B' series four-cylinder engine was allied to a four-speed manual transmission. Capable of over 100mph, the provision of front disc brakes and rack-and-pinion steering greatly aided control.

Chassis number GHN5295981G was manufactured in 1973 and was supplied new to the home market, being first registered on the 23^rd of August that year. Finished in the striking colour combination of Blaze Orange paintwork with nicely contrasting Dark Blue vinyl seats and carpets, as well as a Black hood which has recently been renewed, and Black weather equipment (comprising full-length tonneau cover and hood cover). A desirable overdrive example, the MG was retained in long-term ownership of twenty-two years between 1998 and 2020 before the owner sadly passed away with the Roadster being acquired by the previous owner.

Providing ‘UYH 214M’ with a new alternator, two replacement chassis rails, a new fuel pump, clutch and slave cylinders, rear brake shoes, and servicing, since then the MG has also received a new rev-counter. Showing a recorded mileage of c.33,300 at the time of consignment, chassis GHN5295981G is offered with a history file that comprises MOT history, a few invoices, and a current V5C document, and a BMIHT Heritage Certificate has been ordered to be added to the file.
