- Subject to an extensive restoration and retrimmed interior
- Dry state California import, newly registered and ready to enjoy

Though visually similar to earlier T Types, the TD was based on the Y-Type Saloon chassis. The improvements included: coil spring front suspension, rack and pinion steering, smaller 15-inch disc-type wheels, hypoid bevel axle, and twin leading shoe front brakes.
This left-hand drive export model appears, like so many TDs, to have started life in the USA and was repatriated from the dry state of California in 2014. Reputedly a low ownership vehicle whilst Stateside, the MG has undergone an extensive 'chassis up' restoration since its return to these shores. Attractively finished in Black with Red upholstery, we are informed that many of the parts used during its renovation were sourced via the Octagon Club spares network. Sporting a new hood, hood frame and sidescreens, 'WXG 361' is further understood to have performed well during a recent engine compression test and to have simultaneously benefited from an oil and filter change plus timing / carburettor fettling. Offered with current V5C and photographs of the restoration, this charming MG is reportedly 'on the button and ready to be enjoyed'.
