1950 MG TD

Description

No other car gets you in-touch with the vintage motoring experience quite like a vintage MG. This 1950 MG TD combines a great color combo and the right extra features to make sure you're ready to take the long way home today.

An MG TD has that ideal kind of feeling that immediately reminds you of the era of coach-built cars. Even as you look at the undercarriage photos, you see the ash wood frame that supports this craftsman's car. While you'll love looking under the car, you'll also get that same source of pride just looking straight at it. The two tone is keenly blended so that the black shows of the classic rounded fenders and the red has the ideal sports car hue. And this has all the right touches that make it ready for the open road, including genuine wire wheels, a full size spare mounted on the back, and British motoring badges ahead of the iconic MG waterfall grille. These were built to be open to the world, but in case you do need some cover from the weather, the black folding roof makes a nice companion to this color combo.

Inside is more of that pure motoring spirit with a craftsman's touch. The seat has been freshly recovered in a durable vinyl, so this can look great when parked for years to come. In fact with the nice black seats, plush black carpeting, and classic wire wheels, the whole car has a crisp look that coordinates inside and out. You even have a full black tonneau cover with zip-out driver's section for those times when you want to truly look like you're touring the British countryside. Press the start button, and then the wind whips through the interior while you help fill it with the wonderful soundtrack from the motor. You'll love the classic premium feeling as you look across the polished wood dash and watch the Jaeger gauges do their sports car dance.

The engine is a 1250 cc inline-four, and it helps the car really shine. It's an overhead valve unit with twin SU carburetors. The motor was built for you to go out and row through the gears of the four-speed transmission and get the most out of this little motor. Just like the legs on a little dog, the MG's engine has a peppy attitude that's happiest when it's kicking just about as fast as it can. The light body weight and independent front suspension all contribute to this sporting attitude. But to get the most fun out of this roadster, it requires you. That's what makes these MGs so popular, you are connected with the machine. This car needs you to get to the destination, and so when you arrive, it feels like an accomplishment.

Complete with service manuals, it's tough to deny yourself this classic fun when it's this affordable. So if you're looking for a driver's classic, don't miss this MG. Call now!
