The car is actually the MGB, no space. The MG B was a much older model. Strictly speaking it should be MG MGB. --Gorgonzilla 01:42, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Stock car as main photo?
The red B from san luis obispo that's currently the main photo has an aftermarket front air dam, possibly other modifications. I think perhaps it would be better to use a stock example as the 'type specimen' for the species. the next photo down, green, appears at a glance at least, unmodified, and also shows more of the car (better angle). if someone knows how to change this, i'd recommend it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.116.124.54 (talk) 01:44, 29 March 2007 (UTC).
Also, i'd not in fact noticed, but it's a gt. two problems with that being that mg technically considered it a different model (though most people and wikipedia, i think correctly, don't) and that the caption is then misleading, as the gt wasn't produced until several years after the b had been in production.
The main photo's car has the front turn signals turned backwards along with the second one (green MGB roadster). The later pictures all have the turn signal lenses on the correct way. It implies that there was a change in design during production, but there wasn't.
