When the MGA arrived in 1955. it must have come as quite a shock
to MG aficionados who had become used to the pre-war look of the
company's sports cars. The MGA was a complete departure in styling
for MG. Its beautiful streamlined body was right up to the minute
in terms of appearance and it was powered by a new engine as MG had
decided that the old XPAG unit had had its day. The MGA was powered
by the much more modern B-Series engine that had made its debut in
the recently announced Magnette saloon. MG had gone as far as
building a full prototype of the MGA by using TD running gear. the
1250cc XPAG engine. a re-designed chassis. and the MGA bodywork.
When it eventually became clear that the TF Midget was a bit of a
lame duck and that it would have to be replaced. the new MG sports
car was finally given the chance it deserved. The delay in
production had one advantage in that it allowed MG to refine the
design and install the much newer 1. 89cc four-cylinder B-Series
engine and its transmission from the Magnette saloon.

This handsome MGA was originally used overseas and returned to
the UK in 2010. The vendor is an avid classic car collector who. br/>unfortunately. is running out of suitable space. This has been
restored to a high standard and presents in very good condition. br/>the white coachwork is virtually unmarked and the black leather
seats. trimmed in white. compliment the cars overall colour scheme.
Supplied with a V5 registration document and some invoices. this
MGA is both MoT passed and Road Fund licence exempt. MGAs offer
fantastic value for money in today's classic car market.
