A 1965 MGB Roadster, registration number CYA 208C, chassis number G-HN3-52845, engine number H3643. The MGB was launched in 1962 and was the first MG to utilize a monocoque structure rather than a separate chassis and body which had always been employed with all previous MG models. This very original Roadster is an early pull door handle model, which has had only four owners from new, and has always resided in Somerset. The first owner was a Mr. Lance Clark, a member of the Clarks shoe dynasty, who took delivery of the car from Valley Motors, Bath pool, Monkton near Taunton in 1965. The second owner was a manager with the Clarks shoe company, and third and fourth owners, who have owned the car for the last 25 years were neighbors in the village of Long Sutton. The coachwork is finished in a most attractive and rare iris blue.
The interior is trimmed in black leather with blue piping and has a nice patina. She also benefits from having a four speed gearbox with overdrive, full tonneau cover, hood and a tow bar. There is a good history file accompanying the car with past MOT's and service history back to 1988 and the original passport to service with three service stamps. Original early MGB's are becoming increasingly rare to find and with such an interesting history this car surely is a must for an MG enthusiast. V5C, MOT to June 2012, taxed to May 2012
