The appeal
The 1600 version of the Mk1 introduced several significant improvements over the original model, while retaining certain details much loved by enthusiasts, such as the rear lights. With its front disc brakes and more powerful 80 ch engine, capable of reaching 160 km/h, the MGA 1600 remains a particularly practical classic car today.
This 1960 model has undergone a restoration carried out by its previous owner, documented in a folder of invoices. Since being acquired by the current owner, the car has been serviced by a specialist mechanic, with the last service carried out at approximately 26,500 km. The odometer now reads 27,600 km. It has been used sparingly since its purchase in 2020 and, according to the seller, has always been kept in a garage. It has a valid French roadworthiness certificate until 4 December 2027. For enthusiasts looking for a well-documented MGA that has been regularly serviced, this example is well worth a look.image.png1.26 MB
