In 1962, a revolutionary new saloon was launched by BMC at the same time as the MGB. Initially wearing the Morris badge, design number 'ADO16' was a collaboration between Alec Issigonis and Pininfarina. It was fitted with a transverse A-series engine driving through the front wheels like the earlier Mini. Thanks to BMC badge-engineering, the ADO16 was offered in many guises as a Morris, Austin, Wolseley, Vanden Plas, MG and Riley which made it truly universal in its appeal. Launched as the 1100 as the Mk. I was offered initially with the 1,098cc A-series, in 1967 the Mk. II was announced which included slight restyling, while the more sporting models were upgraded with the 1,275cc engine.
Attractively finished in its lovely original colour scheme of Bermuda Blue with a Black leather interior, this MG 1300 Mk. II displays a credible 70,000 miles and was treated to an extensive mechanical refresh including full engine and gearbox overhauls in 2025. A RHD, home-market example, it was built on 4-5th December, 1968, and dispatched to Hewens Ltd. of Maidenhead, Berkshire, on 27th January, 1969. It is offered with a BMIHT Certificate, handbooks and manuals, numerous invoices and MOT certificates, recent car show awards and, although exempt, an MOT to April, 2026.
