Here are the negative parts of owning my car, a 1972 MGB GT.

A long overdue video that I planned on recording about a year ago, but I could never really find 5 unique things wrong with it.

Hey Adam, i recently got a 1972 B GT just like yours and i had the issue with the water entering the cabin via the vent, if you take the chrome cover and mesh off and look down it there is a hole about the size of a 1p on the drivers side at the bottom. Its connected to a plastic drain tube which exits on the drivers side of the transmission tunnel. To unblock it use one of those flexible metal drain unblockers, mine was absolutely packed with dirt.

You're not alone! Im 20 and also drive a bright red '72 MGBGT, though my biggest gripe would have to be the overdrive having a mind of its own. Or perhaps how any oil you put in, just thunders back out again. Or maybe how the wipers jam in the middle of the windscreen. Or maybe how the headlights fall out. Or maybe how the mirrors dont stay and show nothing but floor. I love my car.

Adam, the footwells getting wet are only happening due to the rubber drain tube getting blocked with leaf litter, dirt etc. as their likely to do after 44 years after all!. Has it ever been cleared out, I doubt it - not the cars fault really. As to rust, well, come and live in oz, finding a rust free example here is very easy!

I have a 1972 MGBGT and I love it. Yes, it has had problems which I hope have now all been put right but I accept that it is 46 years old so inevitably things will go wrong from time to time. That just comes with owning a classic car. The positive aspects of owning an MGBGT far outweigh any negative aspects.

Problem 1 : vynal wrap the vent hole. Or you'll end up putting new floor pans in.. Like me Problem 2: calssic car ownership... rolling resortation : bare metal resprayed mine 8 years ago.. now cover in bubbles Problem 3: bend the wiper : Put a brand new windscreen in mine just after respray... Gave my sister it for her wdding day.. it rained.. they didnt realise this issue.. massive scratch. Problem 4: dont use car parks.. park on the street and walk. Problem 5: no idea.. thats sun roofs for you :)

Back in the 90's, I drove an early 74 BGT as a daily driver. I put 38000 miles on that car in just 18months. I could adjust the valves in the dark on the side of a highway. I rebuilt a cylinder head in 2 days in a hotel room and scored my wife now of 19years with that car. Today, the car is an e-type, and the wife is still around, but I will always cherish my bgt. You either need deep pockets or learn to fix your own stuff.

This is brilliant, I'm 22 and I also have a MGB GT and I completely understand where your coming from (especially the rust, and the wind deflector) they have a mind of their own. As for the water getting in I only have a little from time to time on the passenger side. But all in all nice car :)

What's the purpose of that vent under the windscreen? Normally air is piped to the cabin via a tube in the engine bay (and through a heater matrix). Maybe you could blank the vent off.

Have you considered actually fixing these items and maintaining your car? They seem like they could be fun little projects. Tackling the rust and redoing the paint...not so little a job, but fun nonetheless!

All of those problems are a relatively easy fix for an average car enthusiast, if you're so "into" your cars, how come you don't even do the essential work to your own classic ?
@AdamC3046
@AdamC3046 8 лет назад
Because I have a full time job, and spend the rest of my time running this RU-vid channel, and my photography pages too. I just don't have the time to fix things that don't affect the way the car drives.

Hahaha fuck that shite. You're just a fool that can't turn a spanner, Don't bother make such a pointless video. The problems with that car are common things that develop when the machine isn't maintained correctly, real classic enthusiasts dive into that type of work.
@AdamC3046
@AdamC3046 8 лет назад
Hmm, I believe you are very much mistaken. I work on my car on most problems that go wrong, my only problem is space to do it in, the tools to do it with and time. Problems develop a lot quicker with my car in particular as I use it daily, and I have spent the past two years upgrading parts and maintaining it to make it used to being used daily as opposed to a garage queen. I drive the car like its meant to be driven. You know nothing about me, so don't act like one of those know-all commenters that I see every day.

Something not too powerful, as I'm still a young driver so insurance would be expensive. But something that looks sporty, and maybe was sporty in its day. So nothing too modern. I don't really care much about speed.

Toast Universe It's not a classic, it's just old. I grew up with the lot of these english POS. MGs, Triumphs, Jags, Healeys, and Sunbeams, all garbage. My first un official car was a B GT just like this and to be honest, I was glad when a tree smashed it to smithereens.
@lewishall626
@lewishall626 6 лет назад
redmr2na these cars have something that modern cars don't have, and that's character, and in my case a whole lot of laughter it's not about how good or bad the car is it's about the whole experience which my case was amazing while it lasted and now can't afford another cause they're too expensive 😢
