Why you'll love it
• Classic MG Midget
• Desirable wire wheels
• Same owner since 1999
• Well-maintained and cherished throughout its ownership

We're selling "Midge", my late father's beloved MG Midget, on behalf of my mum.

Dad was a mechanic by trade and maintained the car himself to a very high standard, using genuine parts wherever possible. This isn't a car that's been patched together with shortcuts or quick fixes. It was looked after properly by someone who understood and appreciated classic cars.

Midge was an active member of the local classic car community, winning several trophies over the years, and was always a source of pride for Dad. Having been garage stored and protected with a cover, it presents a fantastic opportunity for someone looking for a well-cared-for classic with known ownership and extensive history.

A much-loved car that deserves to be enjoyed by its next owner.
