The MGC was arguably the most controversial MG to ever roll out of the Abingdon factory! A development story filled with controversy and heavily criticised by the Motoring Press at launch in 1967 - the MGC had a short lifespan of just two years in which just 9,000 were made, making it one of the rarest and misunderstood MGs ever produced. Thankfully, it’s time for the big ‘C’ to get its moment in the spotlight.

Strikingly good 1960s looks, a punchy six-cylinder engine and a unique character all of its own make the MGC a competent grand tourer and well-worth a second look. In fact I’d say the recipe is so good that it’s not impossible to call it a ‘baby Aston Martin’. It’s a big statement to make, but join me in the latest Fuel up Classic video to see if I can prove my theory right with a full review of one of the forgotten gems of British motoring history
