This beautiful MGA roadster (chassis YD1/ 2482) is finished in chariot red with a completely reupholstered light beige deluxe interior and accompanying tan hood, which has newly been fitted to the car. This is an original UK right hand drive home market example, which was first registered on the 1st of August 1959; to this day, it has covered 23, 599 miles by only 7 previous owners.
Mechanically, the car is all in great order having been recently serviced in-house; the oil and water pressures always remain stable and the car starts every time. Moreover, the car benefits from an uprated Ford Type-9 (by Hi Gear Engineering), five speed gearbox conversion, which makes it the perfect drivers car. Coupled with the fact that it has had a new clutch in the last 500 miles, it is ready for many happy miles of motoring ahead!
We have owned the car in the family for nearly 5 years and have regularly maintained it throughout. In that time, it has appeared on many TV programs (such as the Antiques Road Trip), media publications and special weddings. Thus, it is a very well-known example within enthusiast circles.
Overall the condition is excellent, with solid bodywork, no rust and a good paint job. All the chrome work is in good condition as well. Moreover, there is a well-documented and extensive history file, dating back to the 1980’s, which includes a previous photographic restoration and old MoT’s.
Please feel free to e-mail or call if you have any queries or are interested in the car. Thanks
