Maybe even foolish some would say

Ooooh I like the look of that...

[Side Kick]

I don't usually like MGB's, but that looks rather tastey.

[tybo]

I like that

Great looking B and a superb colour choice there fella what colour is it?

C.

[mattiselvis]

I love that - especially the "Rover Battleship Grey" paint job. As mentioned above, you must have football-sized tungsten cahunas to leather it round the 'ring on a wet day .

[Herman Toothrot]

cool, I know exactly how fast that'd feel.

[flattotheboards]

very nice looks like all that work has been worth it though. you have fun in it at the nurburgring?

[Forthright MC]

very, very nice B, great combination of sedate style and brute force!

[mgv8dave]

The colour is from a old peugeot 504 chart from 1989 with 10% red added
