Rarely in our collective search for that perfect automobile do we come across one that is in near Concours-level shape without having gone through a full restoration first. But this 1981 MG MGB Mark IV is special. Very special. Produced in September of 1980, this Brooklands Green MG was purchased new as a 1981 model by its original owner and then put into storage for nearly four decades. With its original paint, panels, and decals still in nigh-perfect condition, this Mark IV shows just 214 km on the odometer, which is believed to be actual considering its time-capsule-like history.
Under the hood, we find a numbers-matching 1.8-liter inline-four cylinder engine topped with its original Zenith carb that makes the same 95 hp and 110 lb-ft of torque it did nearly forty years ago, thanks to its savvy, original owner, who changed its oil just before storing it. That power is then routed through its original four-speed manual transmission, which had its fluid changed at 164 km. Riding on its original independent front and leaf spring rear suspension, this Mark IV sits on 14-inch Rostyle wheels wrapped in 165R-14 Pirelli Cinturato rubber, ready to give you a ride back in time whenever you'd like.
