It’s done about 50 classic events from Pirelli Classic Marathon to Monte Carlo Challenge, some wearing it’s previous registration LBL240.

This MG rally car is surprisingly easy to drive but very quick, and sounds fantastic, if a bit loud! Ideal for track, sprint, hill climb, or just scaring horses on a sunny Sunday. It is Mot’d (no advisories) , road legal, tax exempt, and in good condition throughout with a great patina.

Auctioneers notes: I wish I was 25 years younger!
