I'm a 44 year-old owner of a '77 tourer in Detroit, Michigan in 2021. These cars are timeless and this review absolutely *nails* it. They are the best. The only thing he didn't say was "they are greater than the sum of their parts" or "Kinda like Herbie the Luv Bug." I've owned three MX-5s and a '74 MGB beforehand, but am settled with my '77. No trades, no sales. Great little car, and brilliant assessment. Well done.

[@sahhull]

I do a lot of finishing for a company that restores classic cars. Most of their cars are crated up and shipped across the pond the the USA.

i recently picked up a first year rubber bumper model as a project here in the US. it’s my first soirée into british cars, and it had been sitting for 12 years without moving. we loaded it onto a trailer, got it home, put fresh gas and and new battery in it, and it cranked over on the button. i’ve already converted it to the twin SU setup, and coming from someone who’s used to working on big detroit hunks of iron, there’s something endlessly charming about the little B. i plan on keeping it for a very long time.

[@TwinCam]

Love this!

[@andyrobertshaw9120]

One of two cars I've ever driven that's older than I am - a 1973 MGB V8 Roadster. When I saw that prototype, the first car I thought of was the de Tomaso Pantera. Never realised the biggest selling year was 1977 (pretty near near the end). The Triumph TR7 didn't go on much longer than the MGB. One of my funny moments - I went to look at a 1975 MGB GT at a dealership, the dealer started it up, and it spat a load of oil from its exhaust onto a Ford Fiesta parked behind it!

[@allpointsorganized]

I've owned an MGB since 1984. My current one is a 1979 MGB Roadster that I purchased in 1999. gone Properly lowered to original riding height, polyurethane bushings throughout the suspension, twin HS4 SU carbs, no missions, pertronics ignition, she purrs and completely 100% reliable. Love my B Roadster!

[@bertiewooster3326]

The MGBGTV8 is undoubtedly the finest GT tourer so underrated superb performance and if tuned well it will really move to 140mph with ease grab them only a few left in the UK.

[@mikegalvin9801]

That B-Series exhaust note also belonged to the B-mystique, it was quite as cultish as the contemporary Alfa twincam (e.g. in the GTV).

[@johnmoruzzi7236]

For me that’s the thing that lets the car down... sounds like it’s struggling to perform, unlike an Italian twin- cam rasp or a Triumph straight 6 snarl.

[@che630]

I had a 1974 mgb get in Burgundy. It had overdrive, so effectively a 6 speed gearbox. I loved it. I remember taking it on touring holiday from Kent to Norfolk and ended up having a tour of the lotus factory. Happy days.

[@tedecker3792]

My favorite car and my favorite presenter! This video is as much a classic as the MGB.

[@andrewstones2921]

I had a 1972 BGT in 1982, it had the spoked wheels on knock on splines, which had worn and needed tin foil wrapped carefully on the splines to make up the gap.. it was reliable and fast enough and really looked the part. There was zero rust It that I was aware of. Sadly it was stolen from a car park in broad daylight, and that was the last MG I owned until 8 years later I owned a MG Metro. The BGT was a totally practical car, and the details like that crinkle black dashboard finish and the overdrive made it so memorable.

[@altaclipper]

When I was a kid, these were all over the place. Japanese cars were not a thing yet, we had British sports cars and Austins and Renaults instead. I think this is one of the best proportioned cars ever and ai love it. I also l8ve your enthusiasm and the depth of the knowledge you bring to your videos. Good work.

What a brilliant review! Your use of language is very impressive and engaging. Add in your excellent research and knowledge and you get a very watchable 13 minutes! Great stuff Ed. The captain of my 2nd XI cricket team in the mid 1980's had the exact same car but in brown. Two cricket bags in the back made visibility impossible out of the back window. He loved the car and enjoyed hurtling it around the country lanes of Devon.

[@michaeltutty1540]

Great video, Ed. Beautiful cars, and a lovely example. Back in the early 80s, a neighbour in Toronto had a pair of BGTs. The 69 was his daily driver, summer and winter. Somehow, it never rusted. His 65 was a racing/rally car. I helped him work on the 69 a few times, and fell in love. I test drove one of the last Bs, a 1980 Special Edition in triple black with silver striping. Loved the car, but there was a fault in the gearbox. It would try to engage reverse and 1st at the same time. I walked away from it. Always regretted not getting it. The reason for the raised suspension for 1965 was to move the bumper up to regulation height in the North American market. The original height meant the crash structure of the car was lower that all other cars, so even a minor shunt created a lot of damage, often to the occupants.

[@peterbonnez]

A good essay. I had 3 of them. My first I drove from New York to Vancouver in 1969. Sure there were faster and more dynamic cars available, but the B was an uncomplicated every day car that you could enter Club events at the weekend & have a lot of fun. That still holds true today.

I utterly, utterly loved this episode. OMG, British Leyland just couldn’t put a foot (tyre) right. But designed some great cars, only to stuff up their production. Talking of production, your presentation skills, filming, editing etc., just get better and better. I presume that you write you own scripts and congratulate you on them. I especially enjoy your “In my opinion” comments as they really convey your love of, and interest in, the vehicle that you are presenting. When do you get a gig on TV?

[@finncarlbomholtsrensen1188]

The GT had a larger frontscreen which made it look more harmonious. And when I changed my first Cooper S Mini into a new, I tried to find one, but luckily I then bought a BMW 2002, which actually functioned well, opposite my Mini!!!

[@steamwally]

Nice review, you present your videos with great confidence and in an easy to follow style. I've just sold my 1969 BGT. Beautiful car and a cracking drive - but best used in find weather. The bodywork is so prone to rust and needs constant maintenance if you can't garage the car. Mind you, mine had all the attention underneath - this example is so typical of these cars, spotless on the outside and grubby under the bonnet. Looks like it gets enjoyed, which is great.

[@TwinCam]

Thanks mate, that’s very kind ☺️

[@tomwolfe9331]

[@SuperMikemoss]

Good stuff but surprised you didn't make more of the MGB GT V8. My wife had one (in citrus yellow) for several years. It had earlier been an undercover police car trawling for speeders along the M4 corridor. There was a roll up Police sign in the rear window which the driver deployed by pulling on a sort of lavatory chain arrangement dangling my his head. Lovely car, effortless performance - we still miss it.

[@21stcenturyozman20]

A Melbourne (AU) mate of mine had an MGBGTV8. Fun - *and* scary - to drive. With the V8's torque and the car's low gearing the rear end could get a tad too excited.

[@philnewstead5388]

Great colour, mum had a 1975 Mini in the same colour. I had a GT V8 until five years ago in Glacier White with rubber bumpers. Unfortunately the lack of funding for development and new models goes back a lot further than BL although that coupled with BLs other problems ultimately finished all the marques under their umbrella except Jaguar and Land Rover.

[@TwinCam]

It certainly does. I mean, example one of that is the Farina saloons still being in production in 1971!

Good review, enjoyed that. Have to agree with you about the GT looking better than the roadster. I ran a 1973 GT as my only car from 2007 to 2015. They are very practical classics indeed, although by the end I grew a bit bored of it. The sills were rotten so I let it go for £1500, and moved onto a Triumph Spitfire.

Good vid! The 'B' is still a great car to drive, but I prefer the balanced handling of the MGA. I've driven an early '55, and a MK II. The MGB's ('65, '73) I drove were faster, but didn't feel as sure footed as the 'A'. I wonder how much a 1798cc engine would perk up the 'A's performance. Might be the best of the lot.

[@essexpeter6116]

I really must do some work! Father in law rebuilt a few MGBs in the late 80s and early 90s. They were affordable and usable classics at the time. Usually required some underfloor/sill repairs plus suspension fettled. I never drove one but thought they were a bit poor to ride in though much better than the Midget. You hit the nail on the head with all the BL in-house squabbling. Simply too many marques all fighting their corner. My cousins ran TR 4s 5s and 6s before they were fashionable to collect and would argue they were superior to the MGB offing. The argument particularly strengthened by IRS and 6 cyl engines in the later Triumphs. Who thought it a good idea to put a 1950s truck engine in the MGC? At that point BMC were in a proper muddle. I have read, re the Rover V8 in the BL era, that Rover were reluctant to allow the engine to be used outside of the Rover product, citing supply issues.
