We reckon an MGB is potentially one of the go-to options if you’re looking for a low-stress classic, so long as the body and mechanicals check out okay.

As one of our features on the series says: "One of the great fears of dipping a toe into the classic car pool is you’ll end up with an empty wallet and a non-functioning car. In reality, it’s rarely that bad. However if you’re a little uncertain on where to start, there are much worse places than an MGB.

"There are a few reasons for that. They don’t cost a million bucks, are mechanically simple and fairly robust, hold their value well and are actually fun to drive. Plus, there’s a huge worldwide support network for these cars, as they were built in big numbers (over 500,000!) from1962 through to 1980. They were even assembled in Australia (1963-72) with some 9000 examples being screwed together here., augmented by a fair few imports."

This example claims to have a body that’s in great shape, with nil rust, and a recent engine freshen-up. It’s running the 1800 inline four with five-speed manual transmission.

Located in Pambula Beach, NSW, it’s on the market for $35,000.
