1974 MG B Convertible review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brake master cylinder leaks, clutch master and slave cylinder leaks, radiator leaks, fuel pump leak, carb leaks, bad front shock absorber, speedometer bad, 2 times. Water leaks around wind screen. Actually it has been reliable for the past six months.
General comments?
I enjoy taking it out on some back roads with the top down, makes me forget about all the problems I had to repair during the first six months after buying it. I bought from a used car lot, not recommended in America. Try to find one with some maintenance history.
