Keith Belcher has provided a translation of another version of the advert with a little more detail "the most enjoyable car that we have ever sold. It's aunique model in many respects. Genuine factory MGBGTV8. full restoration completed in 2010, when we bought a first time and sold the same day to a friend Douai. We have maintained it since then and know absolutely everything about her since 2010. She has covered 5,430 miles since its restoration. Bodywork in perfect condition (body color).

"Some differences": it has a Sebring full kit, supercharged engine, (we can not justify its preparation), estimated power 180-200 hp, Minilite aluminium rims with offset (P600 Pirelli 235/60 R 15), exhaust "tailored" (see video above), four adjustable Koni dampers, EBC pads, harnesses FIA (2010), additional headlights, footrest Sparco copilot (2010), and Terratrip 202 calibrated (set on the cover of the car radio, so removed without visible damage) in Oct 2014.

This car was used since 2010 by a gentleman driver in a regularity rally. The car has been on the track once, the Classic Days of Magny-Cours in 2012.
No cost involved."
