Stunning 1951 MG TD Mk 2 that has been tastefully restored and with such an attention to detail. Just 3 owners from new and spent the first 58 years in New Jersey USA

The bodywork is finished in a delightful Clipper Blue and has a deep gloss which appears as fresh as the day it was painted. The chrome embellishments all look bright and clean and provide a delightful contrast to the body.

The hood is also in first class condition and has a set of wet weather panels that were made new at the time of the restoration. Interestingly, many TDs suffer from the timber frame doors becoming a slightly awkward fit and require lifting as they are closed. Not this car, the doors fit so incredibly well and close with an ease normally reserved something much more modern.

More recent work amounting to over £5500 of invoices includes extensive restoration of the cooling/ lubrication system of the engine including a new radiator as well as a full strip down/ rebuild of the brakes and an overhaul of the rear suspension. The car starts from cold with a little choke and runs quietly and so sweetly. Once warm there is a distinct lack of fumes from the tiny tail-pipe. Gear selection remains positive and precise and has a lightness and ease of use to all the controls and has a respectful turn of speed that will allow it to be driven without major concern along the busy A roads of today.

There is a current V5 with the car and several important documents including verification of engine and chassis identification from the Octagon Club, original New Jersey documentation and paperwork from Mathewsons

A wonderfully adorable example in exquisite order.
