MGBGTV8
seen for sale in Australia
Jim Livingstone reports this MGBGTV8 is for sale in Australia. It
is fitted with 15" x 6" wheels - they are described as "enlarged
Factory Dunlop alloy wheels" and the ride seems slightly lower
than standard when you see the car in the top two photos alongside.
It seems to have the original steering wheel on the platform under
the rear hatch.
At current foreign exchange rates this car is on offer at around £43,950.
So even in the "Exceptional" condition class with a number
of mechanical upgrades it is fully priced.
