This 1978 MGB is an affordable example of a well-sorted and nicely coordinated British roadster. The white paint is a nice standout on this roadster. Plus, it provides a great contrast to the black bumpers, folding roof, and yes, even the tires. The color scheme is tied together properly with the black MGB rocker stripe. But more than just coordination, take a look at the details. Instead, the entire inside envelops the driver like a second skin. The space between the three-spoke wheel and the stick shift (both finished in wood) is exceptionally close for comfortable and quick performance. The driver gets a full set of gauges with a large speedometer and tachometer as well as dials for other vitals such as oil, fuel, and water. And this entire experience feels quite correct right down to AM/FM stereo. This is the original motor to the car, and it shows all the right signs of good maintenance, including fresh belts, wires, and hoses. With a sporty exhaust note and a willingness to rev, the engine lives up to its British roadster pedigree by offering a mighty experience in a small package. Plus, there's a surefooted feeling on the road thanks to the large 14-inch iconic alloy wheels with disc brakes behind the front set. The MGB is one of those rare affordable icons, and this one does it all in a particularly striking package. So while it's as easy to own and maintain as a VW Beetle, this one certainly runs in much cooler circles. Tachometer✔ AM/FM✔ Alloy Wheels
