Celebrating a Classic: Stephen Collis and His 1967 MGB

At VINTTRO, we were proud to recently appoint Stephen Collis as a Non-Executive Director. Stephen brings extensive strategic experience and insight that will help guide our business as we strengthen our foundations, embrace innovation, and pursue our long-term ambitions. Alongside his professional achievements, Stephen also has a passion that resonates with many of us, his 1967 MGB Roadster.

The MGB, both in GT and Roadster form, stands as one of the most iconic English classics. Produced between 1962 and 1980, it symbolised a spirit of accessibility, style and enjoyment on the open road. Even today, the MGB remains admired for its design, driving character and place in British motoring history.

For us, Stephen’s affection for his classic MGB is more than just an anecdote, it reflects values we hold dear at VINTTRO: respect for heritage, a commitment to quality and the importance of creating experiences that endure over time.

Just as the MGB has left its mark on generations of enthusiasts, we strive to build a business that delivers lasting value and trust for our clients and partners.

The story of the MGB also invites reflection on a wider passion. These cars represent a shared cultural heritage, bringing people together through clubs, events and memories. They are a reminder that innovation and tradition can go hand in hand, something we aim to embody as we evolve and grow.

So we ask: Who else shares a love for the old English-built MGs? Whether you’ve owned one, admired one, or still dream of one, we’d love to hear your experiences with this timeless classic.
