Seller's comments about 1974' MG
1974 MG MIDGET Mk111 1275 ROADSTER .
Finished in blaze orange/ red with black leather trim.
This very interesting car is for the discerning MG driver and is the very rare round wheel arch model. The vehicle has had a ground up restoration to near concours condition with in excess of £14, 000 spent on mostly mechanics and a few more thousand spent on the bodywork - and it clearly shows. The car is showing 30, 000 miles and is believed to be correct and has travelled a mere 1500 miles since the restoration.
It is fitted with a Stage II fast road engine 1275a series bored out to 1293cc. The engine has been balanced and has been fitted with a lightening flywheel, MG metro pistons and camshaft, MG gas flowed and ported cylinder head.
The inlet valves are 35. 75mm, exhaust valves are 29. 40mm.
It is converted to a single carburettor (SUHIF44), maniflow inlet manifold, maniflow 1. 75 lcb exhaust manifold, maniflow 1. 75 straight through exhaust, electronic ignition, special coil HT leads and plugs etc. New clutch and slave cylinder, rebuilt brake master cylinder and the car has been rated at 85bhp at 4500rpm. The front suspension has been uprated by 25%, the rear AVO telescopic shock absorbers have been fitted and it is fitted with 13. 5? JBW Minilite wheels at the front and 13?x5. 5? JBW Minilites to the rear. The car is riding on extra wide Yokohoma tyres. Not only does this car sound amazing it drives fantastically well too.
The seats have been reupholstered in leather with new carpets fitted throughout, all nearly new chrome work, new doors, boot lid and bonnet. All of the work has been carried out by MG specialists and the parts supplied by MG specialists.
Features include: Minilite alloy wheels, reclining seats, leather trim, headrests, overmats, black anti-roll bar, black and silver numberplates, tinted glass, door mirrors, hood cover, chrome MG logo gearstick knob, period radio and speakers, aerial, fully carpeted out boot, spare wheel cover, reversing lights, MG logo locking petrol cap, full toolkit and tool bag, MG logo wood rim and aluminium steering wheel and inertia seat belts.
The history folder includes: current and previous V5?s, spec sheet, previous MoTs, MoT related paperwork, DVLA paperwork, hood fitting instructions, radio manual, ownership paperwork, invoices for previous work £14, 000, bill for the engine alone is circa £4, 000, MG Midget handbook, Owner?s workshop manual, classic car mag re the MG Midget and old road fund licences and holders. This is an outstanding MG midget collector?s car and one not to be missed! £13995
