Exterior and Interior

Taking a look at this 1979 MG MGB MK IV with its green exterior showcases the MGB's iconic design well. The body and exterior components are in great shape, with the current owner reporting that the car was repainted at some point. The vehicle rides on the original Rostyle styled factory wheels with MG center caps. The soft top, hardtop, tonneau and car cover are included in the sale and can change your driving mood. The saddle brown interior of this 1979 MG MGB MK IV is all original, except for an aftermarket radio unit providing good tunes on your drives out.
Engine
Very few powertrains have left their mark in history as being the driving force behind the entire country's automotive industry, but the humble BMC B series engine sure can wear that hat proudly. Its sheer reliability and performance made the B series special and last to this day. This 1979 MG MGB MK IV sports a 1.8 L 4 cylinder B series engine. While you had just 90hp to play with, the car makes for a hoot to drive, thanks to its light weight. Power is sent to the car's rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transmission. The current owner reports that the motor and transmission are matching numbers.
The MGB is one of Britain’s most enduring sports cars, earning a reputation for delivering open-air driving enjoyment with simple mechanicals, timeless styling, and exceptional parts availability. By 1972, the chrome-bumper MGB had reached its stride, offering refined road manners while retaining the lightweight, engaging character that made the model famous around the world. Showing 19,852 miles, this 1972 MG MGB Roadster presents beautifully in Glacier White over a black interior and represents one of the last chrome-bumper examples before federally mandated bumper changes altered the MGB’s iconic appearance. Tastefully enhanced with classic accessories while preserving its vintage charm, this British roadster is equally at home on winding back roads, weekend cruises, or local British car gatherings.
Introduced in 1962, the MG B Roadster quickly became one of Britain’s most successful sports cars, combining timeless styling, dependable engineering, and an engaging driving experience at an affordable price. This 1965 MG B Roadster represents the desirable early chrome-bumper era and shows just 14,351 miles on the odometer. Finished in classic Tartan Red over a black interior, this roadster retains much of its original character while benefiting from a reupholstered interior and tasteful upgrades. Whether carving through winding back roads or enjoying an open-top cruise on a sunny afternoon, this MG B delivers the simple, analog driving experience that has made it a favorite among enthusiasts for generations.
Morris Garages, or MG for short, used to be an iconic British automaker, responsible for some stunning sports cars, as well as more workmanlike family sedans. Today, the brand is owned by the Chinese and churns out mostly SUVs. The spunky sports cars of yore are no longer, save for examples like this 1975 MG MGB from Charleston, South Carolina. The MGB was made between 1962 and 1980, as the successor to the MGA. Nearly 524,000 cars were made during this time, but not many were preserved as time progressed on. So, this car, with its 75,790 miles and replaced convertible top represents not only a great way to enjoy a weekend back road blast, but a pretty darn good investment as well.
