AI Listing Summary
This 1953 MG YB is one of 1,301 ever built. It has an interesting history with multiple registrations and a long period in storage. A six-year restoration was completed in 1991. It includes an extensive history file, but the car requires recommissioning due to being unused since Covid.
Condition
6
The car is described as pretty but with flat paint in places, indicating cosmetic wear. It was restored in the 90s and used regularly, but has been unused since the Covid lockdown. The vendor states it runs and drives well but needs recommissioning. This suggests moderate wear and the need for some work, placing it between 'Good' and 'Very Good'.
