    Had four MGB GTs during my driving career, used to be my daily driver until ten years ago when arthritis began to take its toll. Also had an MBG roadster early on and a 1500 MG Midget. A truly entertaining car to own, drive and maintain despite its rudimentary underpinnings. So miss that exhaust note and chrome-dialed metal dash!

    Love the content. Brings back my youth, riding in my dad's old 64 B roadster. It was British racing green with knock off wires, had no top, just the tonneau cover. The exhaust ripped off every weekend and got fixed during the week for the next weekend, a viscous circle. Also the door latches weren't that great so the doors would pop open on occasion, one time took me with it going 45mph around a corner. I rolled across the street into a dirt road, not even a scratch. I was three and remember it like yesterday. Some how I am still fond of these cars and those memories

      @@MGB-learning You're killing me!! The closest I ever got to owning a bonefide British sports car was when I was 16. Saw a 1959 Bugeye Sprite for sale in some guy's yard, with a 1962 Midget engine. Primer gray. The young fellow indulged me, bless him, by giving me a ride in it. He wanted $150 for it, I only had $50 to my name.
      Living in NJ and worked on my dad's farm, so it's not like I got paid any real money. Like maybe 50 cents a room in the chicken house to shovel out the chicken manure after the chickens had been sold. Like 4 inches of dried, caked chicken s**t, till you broke the crust and the "fresh" stuff was revealed. Never had sinus blockages, though!
      How did I get on this savory subject? Sorry about that!
      So, let me know if you're of the mind to sell the '68 or '71! Maybe I could fly out to California and drive it home? Now *that* would be an adventure!
      You likely are already aware of it, but the great automotive journalist Peter Egan, of Road & Track, back in March or April 1993 I think, wrote an article entitled, "B-ing There". The coolest article of his first-hand account of buying and restoring a 1973 MGB. And he and his friend Chris Bebee driving it on a lovely fall day from Wisconsin to a race called Road Atlanta. And back again. No issues, no breakdowns, no drama. It's a very good read!

    In about 1966 I was Driving for James Whitson & Co, we made the fiber glass hardtops for Classic Motors in Golders Green. They would fit the two window in the roof and all the other trim work. There I met Liz Frazer from the Carry on films. She was having a hardtop fitted to her red MGB. I never mentioned her being an actress, we just talked about cars. She was a very pleasant lady.

    -Steve Prefontaine (this is a HUGE miss - 'Pre' was the the James Dean of the running world, helped inspire the 1970's running boom, the first athlete sponsored by Nike ever, American Record Holder in many distance events) owned a 1973 MGB which he unfortunately died in in 1975.
    -Leonard Cohen (writer of "Hallelujah", famous Canadian poet, Rock and Roll Hall of Fame member) owned an MGB GT
    -Linda Ronstadt (one of the most commercially successful musicians of all time) owned an MGB GT

    I'm sharing the wild ride with my first car: the '71 MGB, a.k.a. the "Crapmobile of Glory"! While serving time in the Navy from 80-83 in Hawaii.🎉
    It was a real piece of crap! Electric issues, a diva carburetor-you name it, it had it! But I still loved that junker! 😂
    Darkness struck when the headlights randomly went out. The carburetor flooded the engine like a temperamental diva. Unpredictable, to say the least! 🌊💥
    But I missed that troublemaker! It taught me patience, resilience, the metric system, and the art of DIY repairs (duct tape and prayers included). 🙏🔧So, embrace breakdowns and enjoy the ride! Remember, the worst cars create the best memories. 😁✨

    Singer and musician Richard Thompson had a great little song, "MGB-GT". Presumably he also actually owned one, as he wrote, "Oh, my MGB-GT she's a runner now..." while also comparing her to an Alpine, an Austin-Healey 3000, and perhaps a couple others. Very cool song; absolutely puts one in the mood to buy one! No doubt it would have been unseemly for him to be extolling the virtues of a Mazda Miata MX-5!

    I learned to drive a stick shift on my high school buddy's Mom's 1972 purple MGB roadster - pristine and lovingly maintained by her gearhead husband who loved all things British Leyland. What a beautiful car, lovely custom exhaust note, Weber carbs and a mild racing cam. Thus began my love affair with open topped British roadsters leading me to purchase a brand new, 1980 Triumph TR8 convertible fully optioned in Aztec Gold. To this day, MGBs still turn my head in traffic and bring back nostalgic memories of sunny summer days as a teenager.

I fancied a change so bought a White 1975 G.T. hardtop off an old fella in London ,as it was his pride and joy the car is almost mint with tons of old paperwork , it is certainly put together better than the Tr 7 and the motor is more noisy & it"s slightly easier to enter and the sunroof dont leak ,but I found the Triumph easier to drive .I own other classic cars but am looking forward to using the M.G. now I am firmly in my third childhood [my lads ,say ] .

      The lyrics are virtually a 'to do list' for any owner, but on his self-released concert album “Live at Crawley 1993,” Thompson introduced the song by saying:
      "When i was growing up there was a lot of car songs coming in from America, you know, Chuck Berry, and Jan and Dean, and all that sort of stuff. And it was really hard to understand, cause it was all about bits, you know, bits of metal that all have names. And unless you’ve actually taken a car to pieces, it doesn’t mean very much. But you know, you stick it to a jolly rollicking melody and it sounds all right. So this is what we’ve done, we’ve done the reverse-this is our revenge on American music-this is an English car song, and you won’t understand any of it either, unless you’ve restored an MG."
      And that too would seem to suggest "more than a casual familiarity".

    I owned a red '65 MGB with two tops and overdrive. It was fun to drive but had its problems. For one thing it used two 6-volt batteries (which were located behind the seat) and had a carburetor that required 3 dot brake fluid in order to function properly. Looking back, it was fun to drive when I was a teenager. But had the car developed in the way the Mazda Miata did, I think MG would still be in business.

    In 1979, at age 22, I had an M reg (1973/4) factory MGB-GT V8 (one of only 2500-ish made), and dang it, if I didn't sell it to go traveling after a couple of years. Big-time seller's remorse now! I recently looked up the reg, and it's still on the road. I really would like to buy it back. Weirdly, now that I live in Colorado, USA, instead of Essex, UK, my daily driver is a 2018 Jeep Wrangler, much better in snow, and which is as aerodynamic as a house brick yet goes faster from 0-60 and has double the horsepower from a V6 3.6l engine. I guess engine efficiency, transmission, and all the running gear, lubricants, and so on have greatly benefitted from 50 years of Darwinian survival of the fittest automotive evolution.

    You can add a famous Canadian to your list of MG owners: the late father of the current prime minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau. His gather, Pierre Eliot Trudeau, owned a '60s or early '70s roadster when he was the Minister of Justice and later Prime Minister of Canada. He later bought a 300SL Mercedes roaster that his son Justin had restored and used as his wedding car. There is no word what became of the MGB his dad had.

    The last MGB looks like a MGC to me

      Thanks for your comment - absolutely right - I tend to exercise a little poetic licence and include MGCs... :-)

    Valerie Singleton may indeed have had a white MGB.However, while I don't know what the white sports car Valerie Singleton is sitting in is, (around half way through your video), it is definitely not an MGB.

      Thanks for your comment. I'm interested to understand why you don;t think its an MGB - Valerie Singleton thinks it is :-)

      @@ClassicMGB The car in the video has a different windscreen and windscreen frame to an MGB roadster. The door should have a quarter vent window at its leading edge. The part of the rear quarter between the hands and arms of the man outside the car also doesn't look like it's part of an MGB.

      Yes - it looks like you're right - maybe she had other sports cars as well - Any ideas what this is?

      @@ClassicMGB I have a very strong suspicion of what it is, and I am certain of some cars it is definitely not, including an MGB/C. It's not a Triumph TR4/5/6, nor a Triumph Vitesse. It's not a Sunbeam Alpine/Tiger. It's not an E-Type. It's not a Datsun Fairly/1600/2000 Sports. It's not an Alfa Romeo Duet Spider or a Fiat 1500 Sports.
      My best guess is that it's a Mercedes 230/250/280 SL.

      I reckon that's a good shout - the "double ring" steering wheel, door handle and windscreen wrap look right :-) www.carandclassic.com/make-an-offer/1965-mercedes-benz-230sl-w113-gzP604

    The Canadian prime minister Pierre Trudeau had a white one that he used to drive it to work.

      Thanks for your comment - I had heard this and tried to include him in our follow-up "More Famous Owners - ruclips.net/video/KJ84N9ZREN4/видео.html - but couldn't find a photo of him with the car! I'm putting together "Even more famous owners" so if you can find a photo, let me know!
