MG MGB GTCoupé 1968
General description :
Besonders schöner und stimmiger MGB GT MkII! Dieses Fahrzeug wurde vor 10 Jahren aus England importiert und zuvor aufwändig und fachmännisch restauriert. Der Wagen erfüllt alle Wünsche - Faltdach, Speichenräder, 4-Gang mit Overdrive - einfach ein wunderbares Exemplar! Der Rechtslenker mag für einige ein Handicap sein, aber für einige gilt auch; wenn englisch, dann ein Rechtslenker. In den letzten Jahren wurde der Wagen immer gut gewartet und so steht er heute noch in einem Topzustand da! Dokumentation und Rechnungen vorhanden. MFK 7.2020 Veteran.
