Registration No: PAD 267W
Chassis No: GVADJ1AG522711
MOT: July 2022
The production of 1,000 LEs (Limited Edition) in October 1980, included 421 Roadsters and 579 GTs, and marked the end of the line for home market MGBs. The LE Roadsters were all finished in a striking and unique Metallic Bronze for the UK and trimmed in Orange and Brown cloth and featured distinctive Gold stripes on their flanks, deep front spoilers and Triumph Stag-style 14 x 5.5 inch alloy wheels. The latter being cast by GKN Kent Alloys Ltd. The price tag was £6,445, for which you received a very well-sorted two-seater sports car. They have inevitably become collectible. The very smart 1981 example offered, was supplied new by F.W Cuffs and Co. of Chipping Campden. The credible but unwarranted odometer reading, currently 54,950 miles, is thought to represent the total covered from new. Only five former keepers are shown on the V5C registration document and the MG comes complete with copies of its service records plus a collection of old MOT certificates and invoices. Having received a new mohair hood, it is no surprise the vendor currently grades the engine, transmission, electrical equipment, interior trim, bodywork plus paintwork all as ‘very good’ and is offered with an MOT certificate into July 2022.
