The Great Escape Car. 


MGB lets you escape from dull driving. Read how. 
Boredom evaporates the minute you settle into those foam-padded bucket seats of genuine English leather. A twist of the key brings the race-proven 1798cc engine to eager life.Slip the short-throw stick into first, (it's synchronized now), and head for the most challenging stretch of road you know. The MGB's heavy-duty suspenion is designed to arrow down the longest straight and hold the road through all manner of curves, from high-speed 
sweepers to low-gear hairpins.Just think of the extra margin of safety this sophisticated handling can provide on any road you drive. The MGB's dual braking system with disc brakes up front is capable of stop-ping the car time and time again—with-out swerve, nosedive or fade.Comforting to know if you drive in heavy traffic or through areas where children play. Even the MGB's aerodynamic, wind-cheating body is functional. Aside from 
looking attractive, it means quieter run-ning with less wind noise, and greater fuel economy. Comfort ? The MGB is snug and warm in any weather. Roll-up windows,a tight-fitting top, and an effective heater/ defroster make sure of it. And there's plentyof room in that lockable trunk. Escape from dull driv-ing in the MGB Mk. II.

The 1971 MGB. It says more about you than you'd ever say about yourself.

The 1971 MGB. It says more about you than you'd ever say about yourself. When you drive a car, you drive a reflection of yourself. And, in the case of the 1971 MGB, its a reflec-tion of someone very spe-cial. Someone who knows cars as few do. Take the MGB's 1798 c.c. twin-carb engine. You know it delivers enough power to make it on thetrack. And yet if averages up to 25 mpg. And, begause the MGB has to meet the stringent de-mands of raping, its handling is impeccable. You get a full-synchronie.sh 4-speed gear-box, rack-and-pinion steering, heavy-duty suspen-sion, and even radial-ply tires. Everything it takes to take the meanest bend, swift-est turn, or the worst country road in stride. And, of course, you know what it means to have 10.75-inch disc brakes in front and 10-inch drums in back. It means you stop straight every time—no pulls, no swerves, no doubts. If you're impressed by substance, you'll be im-pressed by the 1971 MGB. The one that speaks for it-seif—and for you.
