At the same time another Limited Edition model - an all-black roadster - was released in the USA, celebrating 30 years of MG sales there and built to that market's special requirements.
The final MGBs to be produced for 1980 were named Limited Edition, of which the first examples were shipped into Canada in late 1979. The Limited Edition cars for the American market were shipped to the U.S. in October of that year and came with one fan instead of two. All of these final MGBs were finished in black with gunmetal-grey side stripes along the body and a front spoiler below the polyurethane nose. Additionally, these cars came with five-spoke alloy wheels, manufactured by GKN with MG hub center appliqus, special body stripingand subtle interior upgrades and a luggage rack. The car currently has upgraded wheels but the car's original wheels are available. ALimited Edition dash plaque was installed on the glovebox as well.
Of all the rubber bumper cars, this is the most collectible model and the one to look for.The 1980 MGB Limited Edition was probably the best MGB ever made. The Limited Edition (Made for the USA) was shipped to the USA in 10/79 (with one fan, rather than two) and they introduced it with the Champagne interior. The manufacture of all MGs ended in 10/1980.
