Seller's comments about 1959' MG MGA

Just arrived at the garage 1959 MGA 1600 RoadsterMGB Fast Road Engine | 5-Speed Gearbox ConversionA beautifully presented 1959 MGA 1600 Roadster, thoughtfully upgraded for more modern usability while retaining the character and charm of this iconic British sports car.The MGA marked a major step forward for MG when introduced in 1955, with its sleek, curvaceous styling and improved performance setting a new benchmark for the marque. By 1959, the 1600 model benefitted from a more powerful engine and the welcome addition of front disc brakes, enhancing both performance and drivability.This particular example was imported from the USA in 1993 and has since been converted to right-hand drive. It has been carefully developed as a highly usable ‘fast road’ car, offering an engaging driving experience with subtle and well-considered upgrades.Specification highlights include:MGB ‘B’ Series engine to fast road specification5-speed gearbox conversion by Hi-Gear EngineeringBrake servoKenlowe electric fanHigh-torque starter motorSpax rear shock absorbersChrome wire wheelsA full specification and history file are available for interested parties.This is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a well-sorted MGA that combines period charm with improved performance and usability — equally suited to touring, events, or relaxed weekend driving.
