Description

1979 MG MIDGET 1500 PAGEANT BLUE

69, 000 Miles | HPI Clear | New Hood | Stainless Exhaust

Registration: FNO 70T

Here we have an absolutely stunning 1979 MG Midget 1500, finished in the gorgeous Pageant Blue and showing just over 69, 000 miles, which we believe to be genuine.

This really is a jewel of a little car. It has clearly been cherished and presents beautifully throughout. This is one of those classics that wants for nothing, it simply needs a new owner to get in and enjoy it.

The bodywork has benefited from a full respray in Pageant Blue, giving the car a superb, fresh appearance while retaining all the charm and character of a proper British sports car.

A brand-new soft top has just been fitted, the wheels have been refurbished, and the car is fitted with a full stainless-steel exhaust system.

It also comes with stacks of paperwork and history, making up an impressive history file to accompany the car.

The car also comes HPI CLEAR, giving its next owner that extra peace of mind.

WHY BUY A CHEAP ONE THAT NEEDS WORK?

We all know there are cheaper MG Midgets out there, but a cheap classic can very quickly become an expensive one once you start dealing with rust, paintwork, wheels, a tired hood and exhaust system.

Why buy a cheaper project and spend thousands putting it right when so much of the hard work and expense has already been taken care of on this one?

With a full respray, new soft top, refurbished wheels and full stainless-steel exhaust, a considerable amount has already been invested in this car.

Buy one that’s been done, turn the key and enjoy it.

The MG Midget is everything a classic British sports car should be, compact, lightweight, simple and enormous fun to drive. With the roof down and that classic MG driving position, it’s exactly the sort of car that makes even a Sunday afternoon drive feel special.

This represents a fantastic opportunity to own a beautifully presented example that’s had many of the expensive jobs already taken care of.
