Imagine if an automaker made a car called Midget today! There would be mass uproar, massive social media campaigns of condemnation and a lot of flak to contend with. The world sure has become a rather touchy place. No such finickiness existed in 1961 when British sports car maker MG or Morris Garages released a diminutive two-seat roadster. They simply called it the Midget because it was one of their smaller offerings. Prior, the Midget nameplate had been seen on some of their other cars too. So what’s so funky about this 1971 MG Midget MKIII from Indiana, Pennsylvania? Well, for starters it’s a fantastic way to experience true, unadulterated sports car motoring because it relies on light weight and small dimensions to give you a good time rather than brute force and wallowing about. Granted, these cars are well built to stand the test of time. So call us ASAP if you want it.

Many classic car afficionados are warming up to the idea of owning and driving a classic British roadster. You see, that’s because British roadsters from the fifties through eighties are the antithesis of American cars of the same vintage. Instead of being large and heavy machines with massive V8s and immense power, the classic British roadster rides on lightness and frugality. Hence, you’ll typically find small four-cylinder engines, manual transmissions, and compact dimensions. No, not compact as in the compact segment that we know. We’re talking much smaller. Take this 1976 MG Midget as a prime example. This 79,000-mile car is up for sale with us right now and looks like it could fit in your pocket. The sale of the car includes three keys and two gas cap keys, and we’re told that it bears the original mileage. Furthermore, one thing is assured, and that’s the broad smile on your face when you drive it like it’s meant to be driven.
The MG Midget is a legendary British automobile and is largely responsible for popularising the concept of affordable yet fun sports cars that could be enjoyed by anyone. The MG Midget was closely related to the second-gen Austin-Healey Sprite with improved interior trim and some other small styling changes. Our featured car is a MKII, 1966 MG Midget Convertible. The MKII offered upgrades such as wind-up windows, external door handles, and an extra 3bhp. While the numbers may not sound all that impressive — with a 1,100cc engine and a quoted 56 hp when new — the MG Midget is much more than the pursuit of power. It’s an ode to fun, and we almost guarantee that you’ll have more enjoyment at 50 mph in this Midget than in a supercar at 150 mph.
If you're seeking a driving experience that's a stark contrast to your daily routine, a classic British sports car might be your perfect weekend companion. Renowned for their minimalistic design, lightweight structure, and fuel-efficient four-cylinder engines, these cars epitomize pure driving joy. The 1974 MG Midget is a shining example of this philosophy. Not only does it offer an exhilarating driving experience, but this particular model also boasts a comprehensive restoration completed in 2009. With only 35,612 miles on the clock, it promises to inject excitement and adventure into your weekends.
British sports cars are the antithesis of everything that defines an American sports car. While we like our large, flamboyant sports car with plenty of power, the Brits did things very differently in the Fifties through the Eighties. They preferred smaller bodies with compact road footprints that could quickly nip along narrow country roads. They traded massive and thirsty engines for smaller, more economical ones. Instead of sheer horsepower, they focused on usable power and light curb weights to achieve sprightly performance. That's precisely what this 1966 MG Midget offers its next lucky owner. A lightweight, two-seat, open-topped sports car that's most at home when driven hard down a winding road. While you sit mere inches off the road and wind up the rorty engine, maintaining as much momentum as possible through a set of corners, you'll grin widely and be surprised at how much fun this car offers at 50 or even 30mph. The current owner says that the mileage is most like 113,338 miles since it only has a five-figure odometer. More critically, it's said to be an all-original car that's been garage-kept. Will you be its next owner, then?
This perky little car was born as a two-seater sports car to bring joy to those who enjoy thrashing around tracks for good fun. The MG Midget was officially debuted in 1961 and it was produced as the Midget MkI, MkII, MkIII and the 1500 over the years. You can even call it the typical affordable British sports car of the ‘70s while the Midget 1500 have become least costly model at this day and age. The reason for this is that the Midget 1500 was made more pedestrian-friendly and gone were the sparkly chrome around the exterior that allured buyers. However, we think the MG Midget 1500, just like the 1978 model year one here, is a bargain for what it offers. Clocked at 36,000 miles, this Midget retains its original interior and brags a few upgrades to upkeep its performance.
