Frontline Developments, based near Abingdon-on-Thames, Oxfordshire, and started by engineer Tim Fenna in 1992, has built up a solid reputation for designing and building upgraded components for fitting to classic British sports cars, such as the MGB and Spridgets and Triumphs. Their aim is to combine yesterday's heritage with today's state-of-the-art technology, by completely transforming the performance of these cars - from handling and roadholding to gearbox and engine characteristics, while maintaining their classic looks and character.
In more recent years, Frontline has built up a solid reputation for re-engineering the much-loved MGB GT and roadster, under its Factory Edition and Bespoke Edition programmes. The two original Factory Editions, the LE50, a Mazda powered version of the GT and the more potent Abingdon Roadster both sold out their production runs. These have now been replaced by the lastest models, the potent V8 engined LE60, succeeding the LE50, and a full electric version, the BEE, based on either the GT and roadster.
