The dealer’s Service Manager and myself would respectively disagree.

My ‘72 MGB was a fun car to drive when it was working properly which was a rare occurrence. Bought it new and kept it for 18 months before selling it - felt bad for the new owner for a very brief moment.

I still prefer 2-seaters - just more fun to drive but they must be dependable and a bit more refined.

Nonsense, my good man. Have owned several MGBs, and it was quite common for them to go hundreds of miles between overhauls.

You Sir, are perhaps too hard on a motor vehicle.

One more thing
The dealer’s Service Manager

Last place to bring a car with sporting temperament. If oneself is not of a technical and mechanical bent, the place to take a MGB is your local farrier. Fitting big ends to mine as we speak.
