An interesting article in December 'Octane' about the latest offering from Frontline Developments. Taking a brand new bodyshell, their MGB 'Abingdon' is similar to the LE50- only more so! A 2.5lt Mazda 4cyl, modified to over 300bhp, makes this B seriously fast. All for about 80 grand, for what appears to remain a standard-looking roadster.
(nothing on their website about the 'Abingdon', but this will give some idea)
