Nigel,
Awesome car.
You might want to update whichever description is inaccurate to avoid any misunderstandings. This ad says 12000 miles; the V8register says 120,000.
I've got a '69 four-banger, spoke wheels, overdrive. Enjoyable cars--wish I had that Wabasto roof.

SOLD!!!
Nigel e-mailed me and told me that the new owner will be driving this car thirty hours to its new home in Romania.
The new owner emailed me ,it ran faultlessly from the Uk to Bucharest, but he was alarmed at the amount of fuel he used on his 30 hour drive!! . It is the first V8 in Romania.
Gang,
That has to be the most wonderful MG in the world and now in Romania ! I so hope it is driven by a gypsy!
