When new, the MG Midget was essentially a MkII Austin Healey Sprite in a slightly different suit of clothes. In christening its new small sports car 'Midget', BMC revived a name made famous by a range of pre-war MGs. The new Midget started life powered by a 948cc A-Series engine fed by a pair of SU carburettors. Matters had greatly improved by the time the MkIII version appeared in 1966, not least in the engine compartment where the motor's capacity had been increased via 1,098cc to 1,275cc. A total of 226,001 Midgets are understood to have been built between 1961 and 1979, some 100,246 of which were MkIII models.

First registered on the 1^st January 1973 and a UK supplied example, this Midget’s desirable features include its British Racing Green paintwork with a Black vinyl interior and Black soft-top and best of all, the attractive and desirable round rear wheel arch design. It’s also from the era of the chrome bumpers. The subject of an extensive restoration a few years ago, it still presents well, with the vendor describing it as ‘in excellent condition’. New panels were fitted as part of the restoration work. It is offered with a history file and the current V5C Registration Document.
