1949 MG TC

Highlights

  • Improved brakes and new alternator installed in 2023
  • Participated in a three-day rally in 2023
  • Long-standing ownership: since 2013
  • Distressed leather interior full of character

The appeal

The MG TC is widely recognised as the model that helped ignite America's passion for European sports cars after the Second World War. With its distinctive streamlined wings and agility on the road, the TC embodies the essence of MG's sporting heritage. A true icon, it was widely raced at the time and continues to be highly coveted by collectors.

This 1949 model is in beautiful condition given its age, and has been pampered by its current owner since 2013. Having taken part in a three-day historic rally and benefited from mechanical upgrades in 2023, this TC has everything to please.

BEFORE YOU BUY
This sale is subject to Car & Classic's terms and conditions. By bidding and/or making an offer you also agree to the following:
✓ The seller is registered as a private seller, which means that consumer rights arising from European consumer protection legislation do not apply. However, you are still covered by Car & Classic's terms and conditions.
✓ We require a non-refundable fee to be paid if you are the lucky winner of the auction or if your bid is accepted. Please refer to our FAQs and terms and conditions for specific fees.
✓ This vehicle is "sold as is", on an "as is, where is" basis and without warranty. Photos and descriptions are for illustrative purposes only and it is customary to carry out a full vehicle inspection prior to purchase for your own peace of mind.
VAT is included in the buyer's deposit. VAT may or may not be included in the final offer or tender price, as specified in the advert.
✓ We want the transaction to go as smoothly as you do, which is why UK-registered cars and motorbikes offered for sale on Car & Classic are HPI checked to ensure they have no insurance database markers for damage or theft, and are not financially pledged, allowing you to bid with confidence.
We also check whether vehicles are registered as written off as part of a total loss at the time the advert is placed on Car & Classic and provide write-off category labels (Cat C/D/S/N) to help you. However, the presence or absence of a label does not guarantee the status of the vehicle and it is always worth carrying out a full vehicle history check before making an offer on it.
Buyers are responsible for the collection or delivery of the vehicle. Importing vehicles may incur additional customs duties and import taxes. If you wish, we can recommend a third party transport company who can assist you. For more details and to speak to the team, email auctions@carandclassic.com.
