Seller's comments about 1954' MG TF
This lovely MG TF 1250 comes with excellent provenance having had only four custodians, two of whom are from the same family. The car started life as a 17th birthday present to the first owner who retained the car from 1954 to 2009. It was then kept by the second owner for 2 years before being sold to the family of the current custodian. The mileage shows as 54,000 which is believed genuine and the fact that the original seats have survived largely in tact demonstrates this along with the known provenance of the car which we have on file.
Around 2010/11 the car was subjected to a complete body refurbishment to a high standard which involved taking the car back to the chassis and fitting it with a new body tub, restoring and replacing panels where necessary and finishing it off with a high standard of paint finish. The restoration also importantly included a new wiring loom and anything that needed to be refurbished was done so. In recent months the temperature gauge capillary tube has been replaced and everything on the car works as it should. We have lots of photographs on file showing the extensive restoration which was carried out.
The paint even now still looks fresh and the chrome also remains in good order. The car still has its original wet weather gear which remains in good condition.The original seats are showing their age, but remain in quite good order and we feel should not be restored as it really adds to the character of the car.
The engine has not been restored and is low mileage for a car of this age. The engine runs well with no issues, it does not smoke and pulls well through the gears.
Overall, this is a very nicely restored example of a TF 1250 which has been well maintained and should deliver many years of trouble free motoring if looked after. It has great provenance with a low number of owners.
