Hey all, I'm considering buying a blue '79 MGB and I was wondering if anyone could give me the power/ torque ratings, engine size, specs like that. It would help a lot thanks.

Oh, and it's the 4-cylinder w/ 4-speed stick, thanks.

Hi Chris,
As seen in the reply by Tim, it is not an "extreme" car with dito capabillities. But easy uprated and surely not an oldfashioned car for it's age! In the sixties these were very nice figures indeed. If you're looking to race modern cars, don't bother the MG. If you're in the states, try and find an older one because of the ride hight.
