Bonjour à tous,
j'ai lu dans les archives les évolutions concernant mes MGB destinées au marché US;notamment le 3e essuie-glace, les adaptations pour les normes anti-pollutions...
Quelqu'un peut-il éclairer ma lanterne? j'ai un modèle B de 68' ex U.S . Qui peut me dire ce qu'elle a de différent par rapport à une B destinée au marché européen?
Y a t-il surtout des modifications au niveau du moteur ?
Merci pour vos réponses.
