MG MGC 1960s

What is your favourite car of all time?

The MGC was proudly announced at the 1967 Motor Show as a larger engined alternative to the MGB. Using a re-designed version of the familiar BMC six-cylinder C series engine, the three-litre MGC offered a good deal more performance than it's four cylinder brother. With this larger engine almost 120mph (193km/h) was possible and the 0-60mph dash (0-96km/h) was now around the 10 seconds mark. On the road the MGC was virtually indistinguishable from the MGB. The give aways were the bulge on the bonnet accommodating the necessity of a larger radiator, and 15" instead of 14" road wheels. Failing to sell respectable numbers, the model was discontinued in the August of 1969 after only 8,999 had been built. Of this total 4,542 were tourers and 4,457 GTs.
