Vehicle details

Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

Alloy wheels, Webasto sunroof. 1990 restoration. Powered by the 3.5 liter Rover (Buick Oldsmobile Pontiac) V8. Only 2,591 were built over three years.

Market commentary

A better solution to giving the MGB some power than stuffing the Austin Healey 3 liter six into the MGC, if only BLMC could have figured out how to get decent power from the V8. A good result for a rare car, even if less than the cost of the restoration.
