Description

Estimated Price: £8,000 - £10,000

  • Introduced in 1973, the MG BGT V8 combined the familiar GT styling with Rover's lightweight V8 engine, creating one of MG's most desirable grand tourers
  • This example is finished in Glacier White with a contrasting black vinyl roof incorporating a sliding sunroof, black leather interior and black wheels
  • Purchased by our vendor in 1985, with just three former keepers. The odometer currently indicates 56,526 miles, having passed 100,000 miles in 1992
  • Body restoration by MG specialists Brown & Gammons in 1994, followed by the installation of a later 4.0-litre cross-bolted Rover V8 engine in 2000, which has covered approximately 15,000 miles since. New distributors, coils and spark plugs have also been fitted with extensive documentation of work carried out
  • One of just 2,591 factory-built MG BGT V8s, this long-term-owned example offers an appealing combination of specialist restoration, upgraded V8 power and over 40 years of continuous ownership
