1979 MG Midget 1500 SOLD
This example is finished in Brooklands Green and has covered only 40, 000 miles from new, covering only 400 miles in the last 4 years. It has had just 3 previous owners. I have owned the car for 4 years, the previous owner on the same street had it for 22 years and the first is also originally from the same street giving the motorcar good provenance.
This example benefits from having the original very rare Tan Interior which is in reasonable condition. The engine runs very smoothly however the gearbox does wine in first like most midgets do. New front brake callipers were also fitted 2 years ago in which the car has since covered less than 100 miles. A new battery has also been fitted.
The original wheel jack is still with the car as is the tonneau cover, spare wheel and radio (not fitted) which will be included in the sale.
It has been garaged most of its life so there is limited amounts of rust on the body panels, the shell is also very straight and solid.
It can be used to enjoy during the summer for little expense. It currently does not have an MOT and is SORN but has been started and moved regularly. With minimal cost an MOT could easily be achieved.
This car would benefit from the following improvements,
New rear leaf springs as is sitting low (as seen in photos)
Brake fluid changing
Possible Respray as has marks on paint work (shown in photos)
Overall the car is in good, straight condition, having great provenance and requiring little work at small expense. It has a range of receipts for parts which have been replaced over the years which will also be included in the sale.
It will be tax exempt next year which will no doubt increase its value making it a fun and pleasant investment which you can enjoy and be able to get you're money back when you come to sell it.
It has been a great introduction to classic cars for myself so would be an ideal first classic.
Genuine reason for the sale.
The motorcar is sensibly priced at £2, 250 GBP however sensible offers will be considered.
