This is a truly excellent example of a 1959 MGA Roadster, beautifully finished in Chariot Red with light tan interior.  This car began life as a 1600 model, but now sports an 1800 MGB engine with 5-speed gearbox.  The car was completely restored by a motor engineer between 2019 and 2021 to a very good standard, and as my mother would have said ‘it’s  just like new’!!  The paint finish is excellent, the panel fit is good, the chromework is new, and the interior of the car is high quality, including the leather-fronted seats.  The underside of the car is just as good as the top.  The car sits on chrome wire wheels with matching quality Vredestein tyres, including the spare.  All the suspension was restored, resulting in a comfortable ride and good handling.  The extra power of the MGB engine with its Peter Burgess fast road cylinder head and cam, and the 5-speed gearbox make for a truly exhilirating drive.  Everything works as it should, with no strange noises from the transmission.  The hood, tonneau cover and side screens (still in their box) are all brand new, and fit well.  The paperwork file includes lots and lots of invoices covering the restoration, V5C, Heritage Certificate, MOT to October 2024 and memory stick containing details of the rebuild.

A genuine British Leyland V8, built in January 1974 and first registered in February of that year, supplied from new by University Motors.  The car is in truly splendid condition having had only four owners over its 49 year life.

The bodywork is all original and therefore all the panels fit correctly; the paintwork was refreshed several years ago and remains pretty much perfect.  The interior of the car is mainly as it left the factory with the exception of replacement leather seats.  The headlining, door cards, carpets and seats – as just mentioned – are first class, as is the dashboard.  The original wheels have been restored and the tyres were recently replaced with correct Uniroyals. 

The spare tyre compartment is very clean and tidy as is the under-bonnet area, all in keeping with the outstanding overall condition.  The underside of the car is well Waxoyled and undersealed, this work having been carried out regularly.

The car has been serviced annually by Beer of Houghton – a very well respected MG garage, which has also, over the years, carried out much maintenance and restoration work, including engine, gearbox, suspension, brakes and the paintwork mentioned above. 

This car performs extremely well, with well sorted engine, giving plenty of power – a nice quick V8.  Oil pressure is good, no overheating, good gearbox and overdrive, quiet back axle, good brakes. 

Comes with MOT to May 2024, original sales invoice, Heritage Certificate and all original Leyland paperwork. 

This must be one of the best genuine V8s for sale at the moment.

We are very pleased to offer for sale this super example of the highly desirable pre-war TA Midget.  This car was first registered in October 1938 and comes with a comprehensive history file, which includes a photograph album charting its complete restoration over a 26 year period from 1974 to 2000.  Originally finished in Saxe Blue (in our opinion not the best colour for a T Type), it was repainted during its restoration in the current, more attractive colour scheme which is reminiscent of the earlier pre-war MGs.  The restoration work carried out was extensive, including a total strip-down, new body tub and rebuild of all mechanicals to include engine and gearbox rebuild.  A new wiring loom was fitted.  Much of this work was carried out by a well-known MG restorer, Andy King and the beautiful, mostly leather interior was provided by Collingburn.  The car remains in excellent condition including paintwork, interior and underside.  The bespoke canvas hood, side screens, and full and half tonneau covers are pretty much like new.  The spoked wheels are in good condition.  All the dials are correct and seem to be working (not sure about the clock) and there is even the original reserve petrol switch, slow running cable and fully fitted tool box.  The doors on this car do fit very well.  Driving this car is great fun, with an easy start-up, nice gearbox and clutch, and good brakes for a pre-war car.  The large file of paperwork includes V5C and continuation book, along with a useful lubrication chart, wiring diagram etc.

This early TD, manufactured in 1950, is finished in a most attractive shade of red, with black interior and weather gear.  Originally, this car was exported to the USA from new, returning to the UK in 1991, when it was properly converted to right-hand drive.  The previous owner had the car for some ten years, during which time it was well maintained – there was even a strip-down body repaint, a job very well done.  The body panels all fit well, including the doors, the chromework is generally good, the black leather cloth interior is in nice condition and the dashboard instruments including steering wheel, are all good.  The vinyl hood is in very good condition as are the side screens, and all go up easily.  There is a canvas tonneau cover, again, in excellent condition and a good fit.  In the last few weeks, we have fitted a replacement gearbox and overhauled the brakes, including new front shoes, and have had the car MOTd.  New tyres were fitted very recently onto the original 1950 specification wheels with chrome hubcaps.  Flashing indicators have been fitted for safety, otherwise, the car seems to be in very original specification.  The underside is good and sound.  The car starts easily and runs well with very good performance, good oil pressure and no overheating – it is a delight to drive.  Comes with paperwork including old invoices, old MOT certificates and current V5C.  An excellent value car.

This is a lovely MG TF, nicely finished in its original and rare shade of Birch Grey, with complimentary red interior, and competed by a light tan hood and side screens – this is an excellent colour combination as you can see.  The car is in very good condition throughout, having been extensively restored around 2012 – 2015, to include some new body panels, a complete respray and quality retrim in leather.  The timber body frame was restored some years ago during a previous restoration.  Mechanically, the car is excellent, with strong engine which had an unleaded head fitted in 2011, good oil pressure and no overheating. The charging system works well as do the dials (we have not tested the fuel warning light).  The matching tyres are in good condition – fitted to the original steel disc wheels, the underside is very clean indeed and the exhaust is in good condition. The car starts easily and is a delight to drive, with nice 4-speed gearbox, no strange noises and plenty of performance from its original engine.  Other paperwork includes continuation book from 1969, V5, current V5C, detailed list of parts bought during the restoration and a detailed account of bodywork repairs and repaint.  Comes with workshop manual and MOT to February 2024.

According to the Heritage Certificate which accompanies this car, it was built on 19/20^th November 1979, and finished in Vermillion Red, with silver and grey trim, together with Rostyle wheels and overdrive. The car is in very good condition and comes with MOT to 16/10/24, with original Handbook and Passport to Service issued by the original supplier, Rocar of Huddersfield.  There is a good history file going back to 1987, detailing previous owners and the work carried out over the years.  During its life, the car has had extensive restoration, including inner and outer sills, wings, a repaint and the rebuilding of the mechanics including engine, overdrive etc., all resulting in a very useable example which is structurally excellent – the underside of the car is very, very good indeed. There are a few blemishes in the paintwork which could be attended to in due course, but nothing major.  This is a great car to drive, with plenty of power and upgraded suspension (lowered and fitted with Spax shockers at the front), working overdrive.  The oil pressure is good, the gearbox is nice and tight, the back axle is quiet.  The interior is very good with black leather sports seats, walnut dashboard and as you can see, there is a sunroof.  Wheels and tyres are good, and everything seems to work as it should do.  Very good value at the asking price.
