- These cars mean something to me. I have only had 1 MGB myself and that was a while ago.
When my mate Chris offered me a drive in his, I could not refuse.

I’ve always loved the MGB GT as far back as I can remember. Like you Rob, I’ve always liked the rubber bumper cars as well.
I fell in love with them when I saw a Mimosa Yellow rubber BGT when I were a lad!
I remember in the late 1970s dewaxing and valeting them at Patrick motors. well put together car's.
This car was rear ended the day after this video was made. No damage at all!
Lots of them still hanging around here. Even more here @Work for Parts and stuff. Last year we bought about 30 of them from a local Rancher who slowly collected them. I have a couple of Engines from them too.
There are B's everywhere! And it was you lot that gave us the rubber bumpers. I for one am pleased about this!
Rob, interestingly, I've owned my Morris 1800 for 27 years, and it's always averaged 35 mpg, and it has been my daily for many, many year', but only single carb
That's some MPG for an older vehicle!
Very nice rob 👌, i dare say you saw the three on Bangers and cash that hadnt even been road registered with the wax still on the paint work.
I did! They fetched amazing money from memory.
Rob, these are almost like classic car street furniture but sadly familiarity has diminished them in some eyes. The reality of your test proves that they have the ability to be fun, have a great backup spares and support and enough performance day to day. For me it would have to be the V8 though!
I will have another at some point. But you comment is full of truth!
Its an MGB GT LE a limited edition run out model they made the GT in pewter and the others in gold. I had a GT LE for a couple of years 20 years ago.
Great info thank you.
I ran a 71 MGB GT as a daily in the 1990s. Loved it.
I need to get another at some point!
Great video Rob,but please next time pick up the rubbish on the ground before you start filming & you can’t go telling people it’s alright to drink & drive mate unfortunately we’re not in the 1980s now. 🤦🏻♂️
Nice car mate
It's a beaut
9:52 The sausage roll cubby!
There are so many places to put food and drink in a car! Sometimes one just has to be creative as to where though.

0:37 Oh no, not an MGB! 😂
This one works!
@@beardsandbangers Don't trust it!
It has had its hiccups but runs a treat at the moment
@@christaylor3516 Most of them do and for a long time. My dad's, however, is the spawn of Satan. 😂
