Model history

The MG B is one of the most famous British roadsters ever and embodies the classic, open-top driving pleasure of the 1960s and 70s. The MGB was produced from 1962 to 1980 as the successor to the MGA. With its modern monocoque body, a sporty four-cylinder engine and robust handling, it set new standards for British sports cars. Thanks to its clear design, simple technology and comparatively low price, the MG B became a bestseller and advanced to become a symbol of British roadster culture.
