Buyer’s notes

About the MG MGC

The MGC put a 2,912 cc six-cylinder engine, with seven main bearings, into the MGB body. Making room meant a new front structure with torsion-bar front suspension, and the car is easy to spot by its bonnet bulge and 15-inch wheels. It was sold as a roadster and a GT from 1967, and production ended in 1969.

What moves the price

  • Body: roadster or GT.
  • Structure: the MGC-specific front end is not shared with the MGB, so its condition matters more than on the four-cylinder car.
  • Specification and originality, including overdrive or automatic gearboxes.

Before you buy, check

  • The deep front crossmember and the torsion-bar mountings, where rust is often hidden under underseal.
  • The sills and the structure around them, which carry much of the body’s strength.
  • The front suspension pivots and bushes, and any play in the steering.
