AUSSIE BUILT MGA
In the Early Fifties many New British Sports Cars were Released with New Models from Austin Healey and Triumph, with the “100” and the TR2 respectively. Against this Competition the MG T Type was looking Decidedly Old Fashioned. In 1955 that was to Change, with the Introduction of the Very Pretty and Up to Date MGA with a Modern BMC ‘B’ Series Engine to Compete for the Sports Car Dollar in the Lucrative American Market.
The MGA 1600 was Uprated from Factory with Disc Front Brakes Rather Than the Drums Originally fitted to the Earlier 1500 engined MGA’s. The Larger Capacity Engine with Increased Horsepower and Torque, Provided Improved Performance.
This Beautiful Australian Assembled MGA 1600 MkI Roadster presents very well, with its excellent ‘Carnation Red’ Paintwork, and the Cockpit Trim in a Complementary Dark Red with Black Carpets. An addition to the Interior is a Wood rim Period Style Steering Wheel which adds to the Sporting Character of the MGA. A period styled Modern Radio has been fitted for your entertainment. The Soft Top Hood and Sliding Perspex Sidescreens are all in Excellent Condition as are the Original Style 48 Spoke Wire Wheels adding to the Classic Style.
The Engine and Gearbox combine to provide Good Smooth Power Delivery and Flexibility, with the Gearbox selection being both Positive and Light. This lovely MGA will allow you to enjoy a true British Classic Sports Car, Cruising the Open Road or Winding through the Hills. Top Down or Top Up if necessary, you can use All of Your Driving Skills to make Every Drive an Exciting New Experience.
