I'm guessing it's at least partly the angle and shape of the bonnet, since
I don't have this problem and I'm also driving an MGB, but one with a TF
body.

Now, of course I also have the TF windscreen, but I tend to think the shape
of other cars' bonnets deflect the bugs upward away from the windscreen
more than the MGB bonnet does.
