The Sixties British Roadster is the perfect antidote to your daily driver. Compact, lightweight, and perky, these cars came to our shores, too. Hence, the discerning collector can enjoy this 1962 MG MGA Mark II Roadster which is the final year of this body style for this model, if you choose to purchase it from us. This car has undergone a full restoration and a rebuilt engine with a mere 3,300 miles on it since then. Hence, this car is as good as new and awaits its second life.
Exterior and Interior
The new red paint job on this 1962 MG MGA Mark II Roadster gleams in the sunshine, highlighting how compact this car really is. To put it into perspective, it's smaller than many subcompact crossovers on our roads. Park it within a typical North American parking space, and you'll be amazed at how much room there is all around the car. The car reportedly sports new tires and hubcaps, too, and comes with a manually-operated tan convertible top to provide some weather protection. However, the point of a British roadster isn't weather protection but open-topped driving nirvana. That's why the two-seat cabin of this 1960 MG MGA Mark II Roadster is sparse, with two leather seats, a steering wheel, a gear shifter, three pedals, and a full suite of gauges. Yes, there are headlights, turn signals, and everything else needed to make this car road legal, plus a heater, but little else. You'll really enjoy a comprehensive digital detox when you drive this car, as there isn't even a place to put down your mobile phone and forget about charging it on the go!
Engine
The tiny 1,600cc in-line 4-cylinder engine could deliver around 90hp when new. Thanks to its rebuild, we're sure you'll find most, if not all, of those horses, are still galloping with frenzy. Drive goes to the rear wheels through a rebuilt 4-speed manual transmission. Meanwhile, the car has received new brakes, a new throttle, new gaskets including the valve covers, a new timing chain, a new clutch, new wiring, a new carburetor kit, and new pipes. Then, there's a new long-reach radiator, a refreshed cooling system, a new battery, and a PCV tune-up. Finally, the engine has received an oil change to keep its lifeblood as clean as possible.
Introduced in 1959 as the successor to the original MGA 1500, the MGA 1600 brought improved performance and braking while retaining the timeless styling that helped define British sports cars of the era. This 1961 MG MGA 1600 Roadster shows 64,168 miles and is finished in attractive Chariot Red over a black interior with white piping. Equipped with a desirable 4-speed manual transmission and a folding white convertible top, this classic roadster offers the pure, analog driving experience that made MG a favorite among sports car enthusiasts worldwide. With its elegant proportions, chrome brightwork, and unmistakable open-top character, this MGA is a wonderful example of one of Britain’s most celebrated postwar sports cars.
Giant Killers. That’s what nippy British sports cars like this 1960 MG MGA are often referred to as. Unlike our typical American performance car with its large V8 and massive dimensions, British sports cars use small, frugal engines, dinky dimensions and light weight to punch massively above their class. This also makes them truly exciting to drive because remember, its always more fun to wring out a car to its very last drop of performance rather than be forced to merely toe the throttle for much of your driving time. With cars like the MGA, you can enjoy rorty revving engines and crisp cornering, all without exceeding the speed limit most of the time. If you’d like to get in on the classic British sports car action, this 3,850-mile car currently waits in Fort Mill, South Carolina, for a new owner.
You may have heard of MG or Morris Garages. This British automaker started life in 1924, founded by a man named Cecil Kimber. Kimber was many things, including a race car driver, innovator, businessman and engineer. He famously said that “a sports car should look fast even when standing still”. No wonder he created some of the best driving machines, and even after his demise in 1945, the company stayed true to his philosophy for many decades thereafter. That’s why a British sports car from the 1950s or 1960s is considered to offer a fantastic driving experience, showcasing that you don’t need a lot of power or a massive engine to have fun. This 1960 MG MGA Mark 1 Coupe is a fine example of that, with its 1.6-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine and 4-speed manual transmission. The car is for sale from Miami, and comes with 85,619 miles to its name.
The 1979 MG Midget represents the closing chapter of MG’s long-running tradition of lightweight British sports cars, carrying forward the simple formula that made the marque beloved by driving enthusiasts: compact dimensions, an open cockpit, rear-wheel drive, and an engaging manual transmission. Originally introduced as an affordable sports car focused on driver enjoyment, the Midget became known for its approachable character and ability to deliver an authentic roadster experience without unnecessary complexity. Showing approximately 47,372 miles, this example embodies the charm of a classic British convertible, offering the opportunity to enjoy a vintage sports car experience defined by mechanical simplicity, light handling, and timeless roadster appeal.
This 1979 MG MGB Roadster captures the essence of classic British motoring with its lightweight construction, open-top design, and engaging manual transmission. Showing just 17,192 miles, this example is finished in the iconic British Racing Green and combines the timeless styling of the MGB with tasteful upgrades for improved enjoyment. Powered by the legendary 1.8L inline-four engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission, this roadster delivers the simple, analog driving experience that has made the MGB a favorite among enthusiasts for decades.
Introduced in 1950, the MG TD played a pivotal role in bringing affordable British sports cars to enthusiasts around the world, particularly in the United States. This 1953 MG TD Roadster continues that legacy with its unmistakable vintage styling and engaging open-air driving experience. Showing approximately 72,656 miles, this example is finished in classic British Racing Green over a tan interior with a matching tan convertible soft top. Powered by its spirited 1.3L inline-4 paired with a 4-speed manual transmission, this charming roadster offers a nostalgic driving experience that remains just as enjoyable today as it was over seven decades ago.
