From the ’30s to the ’50s, MG was undoubtedly excelled in the sports car arena. Their simple yet engaging T-Type models offered motorsports-winning pedigree to a broad audience and were distinct in their style. The MG TD was the fourth iteration of the T-Type chassis, which started with the TD. While the car’s lineage was still unmistakable, the Midget adopted a more sophisticated approach to the drivetrain. This includes the hypoid-geared rear axle of the MG Y-Type and independent front suspension. Our featured car is a 1952 MG TD Roadster Replica, which has been painstakingly recreated to offer an idea of what the original car would have looked like. Being a relatively modern reincarnation, this replica has reportedly run just 20,000 miles.
The design of the MG TD was an evolution of the series, which started in the 1930s with the introduction of the MG TA. It features a prominent grille with vertical slats that display an “England” crest and British flag, along with a period-style Royal Automobile Club badge. Atop the grille is a vintage-style thermometer. The TD features an off-white exterior, chrome-rimmed light pods, separate fenders, and running boards. It also has auxiliary driving lights and a yellow-colored fog lamp. The long hood provides access to a front-mounted trunk and gas tank. The wheels on the MG replica are 15-inch wire spoke rims with knock-off hubs. They’re wrapped in Classic Radial LL800 all-season tires. The interior is trimmed in tan and brown material and features a small-diameter steering wheel. There’s seating for two, with lap belts provided for safety. The dashboard is designed to mimic that of the original car, featuring the MG’s distinctive “twin bubble” layout and with gauges to monitor engine temperature, fuel level, battery amperage, speed, and rpm.
The engine of this 1952 MG TD Replica is a 1.3-liter four-cylinder motor that appears to be an air-cooled flat-four from a Volkswagen Beetle. The owner reports that all maintenance has been kept up to date, and that the car features a four-speed manual transmission, independent front suspension, and leaf-spring rear suspension.
The MG T-Type is a series of two-seater classic car produced from 1936 through 1955. This particular 1955 MG TD Roadster is one of the last of them, well-preserved by the previous owner. Although it might not seem so, the TD Roadster was a sports car of the time. The TD was specifically praised for its upgraded suspension setup and ride quality, over its previous generations. It was exclusively offered as an open-top machine with a single powertrain combination. The current owner of this particular car reports that it has been in their family for around 9–10 years. If you’re seeking a classic car in good condition or the TD Roadster in particular, this one is an impressive proposition to consider.

American automotive ethos often revolves around muscle, size, and sheer power. The mantra is usually "bigger is better," both in terms of physical dimensions and engine displacement. However, across the pond, the British took a completely different approach for decades. The 1953 MG TD standing before you is the epitome of this British philosophy – a dainty two-seater with an engine smaller than a Coke bottle. Despite its diminutive size, it's now on the market, offering enthusiasts the chance to unravel the charm of British roadsters and understand why these petite marvels have garnered global admiration, even in the vast expanses of America.
Some cars have their own special place in history — and that’s exactly how we’d describe the 1960 MG MGA. The MGA is a simple formula. Featuring a longitudinally-mounted engine up front, a two-door convertible body style, and rear-wheel drive, it’s the kind of classic sportscar formula that many manufacturers often try to replicate. Few cars can capture the same charms of the original MGA, though. This is carefree motoring at its best, and it's no wonder that these dainty British roadsters are sought after today.

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.
Modeled straight after a concept car, Larry Shinoda’s Mako Shark III to be precise, the C3 or third-gen Corvette stunned America when it hit the stands in 1968. Here was a car that traded the C2’s dainty looks for something truly muscular and futuristic. No surprise, then, that a C3 Corvette is on many a petrolhead’s list of ultimate must-haves. Therefore, we can fulfill one person’s dream, by offering this 1971 Chevrolet Corvette Stingray for sale. With a reported 18,559 original miles, this car is truly a rare fish to catch.
With Jaguar Cars recently rebranding to mixed reactions from auto enthusiasts, it’s a great time to remind ourselves of their greatest hits from the past. One of these is the XJS grand tourer. Produced between 1975 and 1996, the XJS is widely regarded as one of the most iconic Jags ever made. Its flying buttresses and grunty V12 engine all make for a superb driving experience, and one heck of a weekend cruiser. That’s why we’re glad to offer this 1992 Jaguar XJS V12. The car has covered 94,231 miles so far, and has reportedly undergone some recent maintenance.
Chevy’s fourth generation Corvette ran between 1984 and 1996, and was responsible for a major shift in America’s favorite sports car’s persona. The Corvette gained new, angular styling, a digital-style dashboard, more power, and enhanced handling. Mercifully, the much-loved pop-up headlamps were retained. Then, a high-performance variant called the ZR1 was introduced in 1990. The ZR1 drew heavily from Britain’s Lotus sports car maker. Enhancements included a new LT5 V8 engine, larger brakes and sportier suspension tuning. This makes the fourth-generation ZR1 one of the most sought-after neo-classic Corvettes. Here’s a great example up for grabs right now, a 1991 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 with just 69,000 miles on the clock. It’s got a rebuilt engine, while all info is as reported by the current owner.
