The MGB Limited Edition ‘The Silver GT LE’ he's number 328 of just 580 made in this colour and is in beautiful condition.

MODEL HISTORY
Introduced in 1962, the MGB can be described as the worlds most successful sportscar with over half a million examples produced during its 18-year span of continuous production. Integral to the success was the two derivatives, the open top roadster and closed GT able to accommodate a family. Towards the end of the 1970’s, MG announced the end of MGB production and in 1979 commenced the build of a Limited Edition run of 1,000 cars consisting of The Silver GT LE (580 cars) and The Bronze Roadster LE (420 cars). Available only in Pewter Metallic for the GT and Bronze Metallic for the Roadster and each with special distinguishing livery, two cars (one of each derivative) were retained by the BL Heritage Collection which left the remaining 998 cars available to the dealers who fought to stock the cars and even luckier members of the public who managed to acquire one. He is number 328 of the 580 pewter ones made.

EXTERIOR
This wonderful example is one of the 580 ‘The Silver’ GT LE cars produced and has been subject to a historic nut and bolt restoration. To recreate such an outstanding example today would cost an eye-watering amount of time and money and presented here is without question one of the best. Finished in the correct and one of the two colours available for the Limited-Edition GT, Pewter Metallic (Code MMD), the paintwork is exceptional, all panels are beautifully finished and damage free. The bumpers, chrome trim and special silver livery are in excellent condition. The glass is etched with the vehicle registration as issued when new and the meticulous restoration also included painstaking removal and refurbishment on all underside components. A very collectable MG.

INTERIOR
The correct Special Limited-Edition Silver Grey trim, (Code LMH), has been upgraded to black vinyl with silver trim. The material to the seats is fully intact and spotlessly clean and the matching black vinyl door cards are immaculate. The carpets, headlining and interior trim are in exceptional order and the original gauges and fascia controls all function perfectly with healthy readings. The luggage area is very clean and the easy folding rear bench back offers a large flat loading space, perfect for classic touring.

ENGINE & TRANSMISSION
The BMC B-Series engine needs no introduction and its time-tested longevity saw it fitted to all MGB’s with exception of the V8 model. This 1798cc four-cylinder OHV unit features twin SU type HIF4 carburettors and SU electric fuel pump to develop 97bhp and 142Nm of torque. A top speed of 104mph and 0-60mph in 14 seconds are respectable performance figures even today. The engine and gearbox were also rebuilt when the restoration was done. The beautifully detailed engine bay houses the factory fitted engine with identity plate matching that of the heritage certificate along with vehicle data plates and stickers all corresponding. The four speed all-synchromesh gearbox is factory fitted with the desirable electronic overdrive and is perfect in operation.

WHEELS, TYRES & BRAKES
The original cast alloys wheels are correctly finished in grey with polished out rim and spoke facings and red MG logo centre caps. Premium Continental tyres of size 185/70 R14 are like new. The servo assisted braking system incorporates 10.75in front discs and 10in rear drums to offer steady and capable straight line stopping power.
