Description
This very well presented, UK specification Home Market MGC Roadster was built on the 27th-29th March 1968 and supplied new by the renowned University Motors Ltd. Supplied new with wire wheels, overdrive, foldaway hood, tonneau and heater, the C was registered new TML 911F in Greater London. We don’t much of the cars early life, but can confirm the C has covered around 5000 miles in the past 20 years and was subject of a fully body re-paint and mechanical refurbishment program in around 2005.
Further to its major program of work in 2005, more recently in 2026 £7000 has been spent on the MG to include work to the cylinder head, new handbrake cable, handbrake levers, wheel cylinders, new gear lever bush, front brake calipers, new Pirelli Cinturato tyres, fuel gauge and cosmetic work to include a new dashboard trim kit, boot carpet, woodrim steering wheel, refurbished wire wheels and a machine polish. As result the MGC presents very well as a sharp, clean and usable 1960's open top sports car. The bodywork is of a very good standard, the nicely aged paintwork is of a lovely standard, bright work is impressive and the upholstery is very well presented.
On the road the car is impressive, the 2. 9 litre straight six engine offers exceptional performance and holds impressive oil pressure, the four speed overdrive gearbox is a delight to use and the car handles very well. TML 911F is a fabulous car to drive, the MGC is quick and very well suited for longer distance touring, Having spent 15 years with one owner, this has been a lovely car to own long term and with its recent program of work, it's an MGC to get in and drive. The car comes with a British Motor Industry Heritage Certificate, various invoices, old tax discs and MOT's, dating back many years.
