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.

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.

Choosing a classic car can be a tough task, given the number of options one can pick from.

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
If you know anything about MG (not in its current iteration of SUVs, but its historic form), you’d be seeing visual pictures of tiny sports cars with surprisingly vocal engine notes being driven like bats out of hell. That’s precisely what MG, or Morris Garages, was about in the sixties, seventies, and eighties. They built diminutive British roadsters, two-seat cars that were all about a sporting drive. And get this; they didn’t use massive horsepower V8s to provide the fun. Instead, they were lightweight, nimble machines that could easily dance from corner to corner. The MGB is one of their finest models, and it was made for fifteen years. Most commonly seen in roadster or convertible form, MG did make a fixed-head coupe called the GT. That’s precisely what this 1973 MG MGB GT is, and with over 192,000 miles on the clock, you can tell that it’s been enjoyed. But don’t let the mileage put you off because these cars are tenacious, long-lasting, and easy to fix if they go wrong.
The iconic 1977 MG MGB started development as early as 1958 with the Abingdon codename: MG EX205. It was a progressive and modern design for the early ‘60s, using a unitary structure instead of the traditional body-on-frame that was used on the MGB’s rival, the Triumph TR series. These British machines were among the first cars to feature controlled crumple zones designed to protect the driver and passenger in a 30 mph impact against a 200-ton immovable barrier. The MGB remains a popular choice for car collectors due to inexpensive and readily available parts and simple mechanics, such as the particular model we have today in red, which has clocked 50,000 miles on its odometer, accompanied by a new chrome bumper conversion. For sale in Fairfield, Connecticut, this is your chance to own a 1977 MG MGB.
The famous French designer Paul Bracq deserves a round of applause from all European auto lovers around the globe. He is the creative mind behind Mercedes-Benz's most glamorous and desirable models. Among them, the Pagoda is a cherished example built between 1967 and 1971. The one Pagoda nickname stems from the design of the hardtop roof, which is similar to the roofs of traditional Asian pagodas. It was also called the Mercedes-Benz W 113 and made history as the first sports car with a "safety body." What we have here is a 1965 Mercedes-Benz 230SL showing just 47,700 miles on its clock. Its owner claims that they are the second owner of this car, and it is mostly original. It currently resides in California and is awaiting its next lucky owner.
Introduced in 1967 alongside its Pontiac Firebird sibling, the Camaro posed a genuine threat to Ford’s Mustang. Competing in the pony car space, you’ll find distinctive camps of Mustang fans and Camaro fans. And then, you’ve got those who want (or already have) one of each. Either way, we’ve got a second-generation 1973 Chevrolet Camaro Z28 up for sale to one lucky owner. This car comes with some lovely modern features beneath the skin, including a new engine that’s far more potent than what the car received at the factory. Furthermore, it’s got just 2,000 miles on the clock since its makeover.
A first-generation Mustang is a fantastic way to get into collecting classic cars or dip your toes into the waters and see if the temperature is right. The first-generation Mustang sold by the bucketload and was one of the hottest cars in America during the sixties. As time passed by and newer generations came out, the first one never lost its appeal. In fact, it gained more and more appeal and is now firmly recognized as an iconic classic representing American automotive culture. That’s why we’re confident that this 1965 Ford Mustang GT Convertible will catch many eyes. The car comes to you with just 20,000 miles after an engine rebuild and reportedly sports stock parts. If it appeals to you, best act fast.
