- 1 of just 751 Jubilee limited editions made to celebrate MG's 50th Anniversary - Subject to a bare metal restoration and re-trimmed seats - Offered with photographic record of the recent work and MOT'd into April 2016 The Jubilee edition of 'everybody's favourite sports car' was produced in 1975 to celebrate 50 years of the MG marque. Each car was finished in British Racing Green complemented by Gold stripes and other detailing. The unique specification extended to overdrive, B V8-style wheels and large diameter three-spoke steering wheel; fully carpeted interiors and tinted windows, and was attributed to 751 MG B GTs, one MG B Roadster, one MG B V8, and a solitary Midget. The Jubilee B GT now on offer was manufactured in May 1975 and dispatched to Oliver Rix (Garages) Ltd of Hanley, Stoke-on-Trent. They delivered it to the first owner on 12th August. In 1989 it was acquired by MG specialists Little Houghton Garage, Northants. They embarked on a restoration that was never completed and the MG then languished in the Garage until rescued by the vendor in January this year. It has since been treated to a complete bare metal restoration, during which all corrosion was removed, the wheels refurbished, new tyres fitted and the seats retrimmed. 'LEH 151P' is now offered complete with a photographic record of the recent work and MOT to April 22nd 2016.
