MGB Roadster
For Sale

The 1.8-liter B-Series, a proven inline-four engine, received a five-bearing crankshaft for improved durability and smoothness. It produced approximately 95 horsepower, allowing for a top speed of over 100 mph.

A new, all-synchromesh four-speed manual gearbox was introduced, making for a much smoother and more reliable shifting experience. This was a major upgrade from the older, non-synchromesh MkI gearbox. An automatic transmission was also offered for the first time.

The electrical system was switched from positive to negative earth, and the old dynamo was replaced with a more powerful alternator.

The interior saw minor changes, including a new dashboard and modified transmission tunnel to accommodate the updated gearbox.

The 1968 model is one of the last MGBs with the original, elegant chrome bumpers and lower ride height. Later models were fitted with heavy, black rubber bumpers to meet new US safety regulations, which many enthusiasts find less aesthetically pleasing.

The all-synchromesh gearbox and electrical upgrades makes the MkII generation offers a more modern and user-friendly driving experience than the earlier MkI. This makes it a great choice for both casual cruising and more spirited driving.
