⭕ VEHICLE SUMMARY

The MGA's agility and dynamic performance makes it an elegant and rewarding classic to drive.

The MGA was born out of MG’s return to competition after a ~20-year gap. In 1955, three pre-production vehicles tested the new MG's high-speed reliability at Le Mans, with promising results which piqued the public's interest. The MGA's smooth flowing lines and marked improvement over previous MGs in regards to safety and refinement resulted in unprecedented demand for the MGA in the US, and production was prioritised towards exports.

The coupe, which debuted shortly after the roadsters, transformed the MGA's appearance by adding even more visual flair with its wraparound front and rear windows and a purposeful, poised stance. It also turned out to be a better touring vehicle for longer distances. Now fitted with lockable doors and wind-up windows, the MGA coupe provided a family car refinement with a genuine sporting touch.

In 1959, the final version of the MK1 was upgraded to use the new B Series 1.6-litre engine, mated to a front disc brake set-up to help manage the stopping power. Minor cosmetic details were also incorporated. The MGA 1600 is often a sensible choice for a balance of flexibility and performance; it also gained a reputation for reliability, ease of maintenance and parts availability.

This is a one-owner MG MGA 1600 coupe finished in Old English White with a red leather interior. It is a matching numbers car and has the bonus of a long MOT for peace of mind. It comes with its current V5 and has seen an undocumented historic restoration to a high standard.
