This must be one of the best restored cars in existence. Total body-off last nut & bolt renovation by skilled marque expert. The car is as beautiful on the underside as it is on the top. Fully polished & detailed engine bay. We can honestly describe the vehicle as being indistinguishable from new.
The vehicle has been completely restored, some details are listed below, it is as close to its original specification as possible and checked for authenticity by the MG Octagon Car Club.
Invoices for all the significant restoration components and repairs are available to the purchaser.
The vehicle is featured in the August 2016 edition of the MG Enthusiast Magazine.
This is a quote from another MG YT owner and MGCC member:-
