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.
The exterior appearance of the 1966 MG Midget Convertible is fairly typical of British sports cars of the ’60s. The Midget features two seats, a convertible roof, and a small footprint. Our featured car is finished in red, while the black soft-top comes with a handy tonneau cover for keeping the lines flush when the roof is folded away. The MG Midget sits on 13-inch center-lock wire wheels wrapped in Dunlop tires. The interior is reported as original, save for the newly reupholstered seats. The seats are trimmed in black with white pinstriping. The driver is presented with a three-spoke wheel with the MG badge at its center. Mounted directly in front are Smiths gauges for a tachometer and speedometer. Additional black-faced Smiths gauges are found towards the center of the dashboard for fuel level, oil pressure, and water temperature.
The 1966 MG Midget Convertible utilizes the tried-and-tested drivetrain layout: engine up front, and power sent to the rear. The engine in question is a 1,098cc A-Series four-cylinder motor, which was quoted when new to produce 56 hp and 62 lb-ft of torque. The Midget features a four-speed manual transmission, front disc brakes, rear drum brakes, and independent front suspension. The rear suspension comprises semi-elliptic leaf springs.

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 MGB is one of a series of fine open-topped British roadsters produced by the iconic automaker Morris Garages.

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?
Triumph is a brand that not many in the United States have heard of, at least associated with cars. That’s because Triumph made not only four-wheelers, but two-wheelers as well. Yes, Triumph started off with bicycles and ventured into motorcycles. However, in the four-wheeled space, Triumph is best known for their classic British roadsters. Sadly, Triumph went defunct in 1984. The Stag was one of their signature models, produced between 1970 and 1977. Sporting Italian styling, over 25,000 were made across this seven-year production run, and the Stag was targeting the luxury sports car segment. Today’s 1972 Triumph Stag is a little different because it’s got an engine swap that give it more power than stock. Up for sale in Libertyville, Illinois, this could be your way to experience the British roadster life.
