For sale: a stunning MG B GT that has been converted to feature the much-loved Rover 3.5-litre V8 with a 5-speed gearbox. Converting an MGB GT to a Rover V8 is a popular and tried-and-tested conversion. As the aluminium 3.5-litre Rover V8 is lighter than the original cast-iron four-cylinder engine, the conversion has no effect on the car’s handling. It also delivers a power output of approximately 160 pk in its standard specification. The car is finished in the classic Vermilion Red colour with a stylish white roof, a combination that perfectly suits the sporty character of this exceptional GT. The V8 conversion has been carried out with great care and the car features the correct final drive ratio, allowing the extra power to be put to excellent use. Thanks to the appropriate final drive ratio, the engine runs pleasantly smoothly at higher speeds, ensuring relaxed touring, greater driving comfort and a pleasing balance between performance and practicality. In addition, there is a record of parts replaced over recent years. Among other things, the oil cooler, V-belts and various other wear and maintenance parts have been replaced. This MG B GT V8 combines the timeless design of the classic GT with the characterful sound and performance of the Rover 3.5-litre V8. The result is a truly fine classic car that not only offers great driving pleasure but has also been meticulously restored. The MG is fitted with a telescopic shock absorber conversion kit, both at the front and the rear.
