SUMMARY
This is a cracking MG C in simply lovely condition with some sensible upgrades, freshly serviced and ready to enjoy.
DESCRIPTION
- First seen in 1967, fewer than 2,000 right-hand drive MG C Roadsters were made. Because of these low production numbers, the MG C is keenly sought after
- This smart example dates from 1968 and is finished in British Racing Green with a rare removable hardtop and the correct soft top
- 15" wire wheels with twin-eared knock-offs wearing decent Michelins all round
- The gently patinated black leather seats are piped in white and the dashboard presents well, with crisp Smiths instruments and a period Radiomobile push-button radio
- Upgrades to improve performance and drivability, including Spax suspension dampers and has very recently been serviced by CKL
- Included in the sale are a raft of service invoices, historic MOT Certificates, wonderful history file going back to 1976, spare wire wheel, jack and tool roll
