MG or Morris Garages is one of the most iconic British automakers in history. Today, the brand is under Chinese ownership and primarily makes SUVs and sedans, with some electric mobility options too. But if you look at its storied history, MG was well-known for making some of the most fun-to-drive British sports cars. What’s so great about British sports cars? You see, they are the very opposite to what we Americans consider sporting. These are tiny cars, smaller than your average subcompact, with low-displacement engines that merrily hum away. However, these flyweights are anything but slow; they can drive circles around larger, lumbering V8 machines. The MGA model came in 1955 and ran until 1962. Over 100,000 were produced, majority of which were exported. Today’s 1960 MG MGA 1600 is one of those examples, and has received a fair bit of replacement parts to keep it as fresh as possible. Now, the car waits in Fort Mill, South Carolina for a new owner. The current owner includes the refurbishment records and photos with the sale.
One look at this 1960 MG MGA 1600 and you know it’s a special car. Check out its black paint job and 15-inch chrome wire wheels. You’ll also notice that this is a coupe rather than a convertible, which is great for all-weather enjoyment. The car’s bumpers and grille are also covered in chrome, and the whole thing is just 156 inches long and 58 inches wide. Now that’s diminutive! The interior of this 1960 MG MGA 1600 features two red leather-upholstered seats and a red-trimmed dashboard. It’s a place where driving enjoyment takes precedence, with no unnecessary fripperies or digital distractions to disturb the atmosphere of purity.
This 1960 MG MGA 1600 enjoys a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine, powering the rear wheels through a 4-speed manual transmission. The car comes with front disc brakes and rear drums for excellent stopping power. Refurbishment parts include a D9 camshaft and bearings, adjustable camshaft sprocket, a Jaguar-sourced timing-chain tensioner, a camshaft tachometer drive gear, replacement rocker shaft assemblies and pushrods, 0.010” main and rod bearings, and a custom coolant-block-off sleeve thermostat. Also replaced are the cylinder head and manifold hardware, wiring harness, voltage regulator, starter motor, and more. So, this car is just waiting to be driven in enjoyment.

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.
Choosing a classic car can be a tough task, given the number of options one can pick from. But let's highlight one of the best British roadsters to be imported stateside with this lovely 1959 MG MGA Roadster we have here. With a reported 28,500 miles on its clock, this British classic is reported to have seen a nut and bolt restoration and is geared to bring out the good times every time you're behind the wheel

For us Americans, the idea of sporty driving means large vehicles with massive V8s and at least 300 horses waiting to be unleashed. Across the Atlantic in the United Kingdom, things were rather different in the ʼ60s, ʼ70s and ʼ80s. There, a sports car was a little thing, often no larger than a compact car, often sporting a four-cylinder engine under the hood. Enter the world of the British Roadster – open-topped machines with modest power figures and low kerb weights. This 1977 MG MGB Mark IV Roadster is a prime example of a ʼ70s British Roadster and it’s for sale by its original owner right now. The car boasts a host of new parts, a rebuilt engine, and up-to-date servicing. What more could you ask for?
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.

Chevrolet offered the 150 model line-up from 1953 to 1957. The 150 was Chevy’s economy or budget offering, aimed at helping Americans acquire mobility in a cost-effective manner. Produced over two generations, the 150 was offered as a coupe, wagon or sedan. Today, we’ve got a wagon variant of the second generation 150, aptly named the 1957 Chevrolet 150 Handyman. This car comes from Belleville, New Jersey. The current owner informs us that included with the sale is some interior components that are all new and in their boxes, plus the car’s shop manual. With its simplistic mechanicals and quintessentially Fifties styling, this car is perfect for someone looking to buy their first classic car. Read on to discover what it offers.
The ʼ80s was a time of extravagance, pushing the limits of automotive engineering and a big shift in customers preferences - analog was a thing of the past, the new and improved era was all about digital. There was however one machine that stood the test of time and handled the ʼ80s and its massive shift with class and elegance. The Mercedes-Benz SL R107 was nothing short of iconic, it was iconic to the point where it not just changed how open top motoring was in the ʼ70s but brought analog and old school charm into the ʼ80s as well. Present here is an automotive icon whose production ran almost two decades and takes shape with this lovely 1989 Mercedes-Benz 560SL. This clean example is reported to have a mere 24,688 miles on its clock and is ready to transform what your expectations of memorable drive is and also serve as a savvy investment in the years to come
