1961 MGA Coupe 1600 Great invested and sort after SOLD

The M. G. A. was introduced in 1956 with a 1489cc engine and was produced in both two seater coupe and open roadster format. In 1959 a 1600cc engine was fitted which delivered 80bhp and front disc brakes were fitted to help it stop.
Iam extremely pleased today to offer my superb and stunning example of the more desirable 1600cc fixed head coupe version which is also a genuine right hand car. It had a full body off restoration which took four years from 1980 and the present owner, a collector of some note, purchased the vehicle in 1995 and has since spent over £4, 500 on a full mechanical overall, including converting it to run on unleaded fuel, the fitment of a five speed gearbox and a full bare metal repaint. It still retains its original registration number 143 BXL and there is a full history file dating back to 1973 and all the MOT certificates dating back to 1981.
This is an excellent car which is currently MOT'd and taxed
