This MG MIDGET is in SUPERB condition.

Despite its dinky dimensions, the MG Midget was a sales smash. Designed as an affordable entry-level model, the tiny two-seater combined eager performance, agile handling and wind-in-the-hair thrills with a low price and penny-pinching running costs.

The original launched in 1961, and was essentially a rebadged version of the Austin Healey Sprite. That meant a tiny 948cc four-cylinder engine, with 45bhp, a simple rear-wheel-drive layout and no-frills cabin – even a heater was an extra cost option.

A year after the launch, MG enlarged the engine to 1.1 litres and added disc brakes, while in 1966 the Midget got a detuned 65bhp version of the 1.3-litre A-Series engine from the Mini Cooper S.

Climb behind the wheel and you’ll find there’s a surprising amount of space. The Midget is also good to drive, with decent feedback from the steering and a precise gearshift. And although outright performance is modest, the compact dimensions mean it’s easy to keep your speed up in this car, especially on tight and twisty roads. In fact, after a few miles you can see why nearly 250,000 Midgets rolled out of the factory before production ended in 1979.

This Car Is Great Fun To Drive. Performance Is Brisk And The Grin Factor Is Guaranteed. Open The Roof And Let The Sunshine In And The Experience Is Amazing !!

The MG Midget Is A Fantastic Iconic British 2 Seater Sports Car And There Enthusiastic Following Is More Than Justified.

SPEC INCLUDES : Black Vinyl Interior, Mini Lite Wheels, Mota-Lite Steering Wheel, Chrome Bumpers.

MUST BE SEEN !!

THIS IS AN FANTASTIC EXAMPLE OF AN MG MIDGET MK3, A GREAT ADDITION TO ANYBODY’S COLLECTION !!
