1967 MGB Roadster Vintage Racer - One Take

Опубликовано 28 сентября 2017, 11:00

This 1967 MGB is a replica of what a period factory works Group 5 race car would have been like. It makes 130 HP from a naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine, weighs around 1,800 LBS, and makes a spectacular cackle at full throttle and when coming down off compression; an absolutely brilliant driving experience.
