This 1966 MG B, chassis GHN3L89438, is presented in its classic British Racing Green colour, with left-hand drive, a 1.8L (1798 cm³) engine producing 95 hp, and a manual gearbox. The odometer shows 4523 km – likely since a reset following a restoration. The car is not equipped with a permanent antifreeze system, but 1 litre of coolant was added during the check.

The bodywork was repainted professionally in the original colour and overall presents well, despite some normal signs of use. The hardtop is missing, and the soft top requires adjustment as it does not fit properly.

The chassis is in good condition, with visible but properly done repairs and neatly welded panels. The underside is healthy. The tyres are in good condition and can still be used for several more years.

The interior is clean overall and has been carefully restored. The seats are in good condition with light signs of use, and the carpets are acceptable. The engine bay retains its original mat, which shows typical dirt. The passenger floor is in good condition and appears to have been recently maintained.

Mechanically, the engine runs, but tuning is recommended for optimal performance. The gearbox and clutch function properly. Overdrive is not fitted. The brakes need inspection: possible leak at the rear right, handbrake requires adjustment, and the brake pedal feels soft. Brake lights, indicators, and fog light are non-functional.

The suspension shows some play at the rear right, and at both front wheels. The battery is still functional but should be replaced soon.

In summary, this is a charming and presentable example of an MG B, benefiting from an earlier amateur-quality restoration. A few technical issues need attention, but it’s an ideal base for an enthusiast looking to drive and gradually refine a true British classic from the 1960s.
