This beautiful 1973 MG Midget 1275 is the highly desirable round-wheel-arch model, finished in its original and particularly attractive Harvest Gold, complemented by a dark blue interior and professionally refurbished Rostyle wheels.
The car benefited from a documented, photographed bare-metal respray and restoration in 2021, carried out by a reputable classic car specialist at a cost of £12,500. The original body was already remarkably sound, requiring only attention to minor rust marks and tired paintwork.
The restoration also included new carpets and a new hood, both of which remain in excellent condition. The original chrome bumpers have been retained and sympathetically cleaned rather than replaced, preserving the car's authentic period appearance.
Mechanically, the car has an impressive history:
- 1275cc engine rebuilt at 46,720 miles
- Gearbox rebuilt at 57,560 miles
- Ron Hopkinson precise steering and handling kit
- Full stainless-steel Moss exhaust system
- Recent brake overhaul including new hoses, discs and pads
- New alternator and condenser
The car is accompanied by a large and extensively documented history file, including MOT certificates dating back to 1980, providing excellent provenance and evidence of its long-term care.
This Midget is a genuine pleasure to drive—light, responsive and full of classic British character. A highly desirable specification, beautifully presented and ready to be enjoyed.
