Now, now, that's a little harsh. If you wish to put the knock on RBBs, save your derision for the 75-76 models. The performance of the later ones actually started improving up until the end, although

I think we need to look at collectible cars not on their performance merits, but on their uniqueness. First of all, other than the '67 BGT specials, this was the only 'special' MGB that ever made it

I can't remember where, but I know I once read that all 1980 NA MGB's from the factory were LE's. Any others were unsold 1979's reclassified as 1980's under laws extent at that time, that allowed thi

Personally, I am incredibly grateful that lots of people want the 68-80 MGBs, instead of running up the prices of the early ones to astronomical heights. If people appreciated the pre '68s as much as
