MG MGA - sounds nice

Hi all this one looks quite nice apart from the fact it's mk2, already told him about the overiders lol

Looks very nice and patinated!

The "engineers" report is not very impressive! It appears to have been written by the last owner or a good friend who doesn't know much about MGAs.

With the painted radiator cap and upside down (I think he was a Jaguar owner!) overiders, makes me wonder what other surprises a new owner might find.

I assume that's a headlamp flasher switch next to the "replacement" indicator switch.

Overall a good original car, apparently with full history, that (although at the top end) looks to be much better value than the last one Gordon!

Hi Neil I promise to try and do better lol, shame its a mk2 can't stand that grill and the mini lights

Not a fault persay, but that exhaust system must be low slung for the tail pipe to be under the over rider.

If there are no major faults on the body and driveline, this car could be a superb patinated original with a little more attention to detail.

Either that or drive the heck out of it until it's ready for a complete restoration! It would be a high price to buy it for the latter.

Hi Steve the exhuast needs to come roung 180 its supposed to point up towards the 2 o clock position
