On the Surface:

A good example of a desirable square wheel arch MG Midget, this 1967 car is finished in Black with a matching Black soft top over Black upholstery. Compact, stylish, and quintessentially British, it presents well as a classic lightweight two-seater sports car.

Maintenance & History:

Supplied with a good history file, the car comes with invoices and MOT certificates dating back to 1996. Owned by The Vendor for the past two years, it has enjoyed consistent attention and maintenance throughout its life. The Vendor informs us that the car has been regularly serviced by Phoenix Classic Cars during their ownership. More recently, it has benefited from an engine tune to ensure smooth running.

The Model:

The MG Midget was produced between 1961 and 1979, reviving the famous Midget name previously seen on MG’s pre-war and T-type models. The Mk III, introduced in 1966, was fitted with the 1275cc engine derived from the Mini Cooper ‘S’. While enthusiasts noted it was a detuned version, producing 65 hp rather than the Cooper ‘S’ 76 bhp, the combination of light weight and nimble handling ensured the Midget’s reputation as a spirited and affordable sports car.

Sale Insight:

This 1967 MG Midget represents a fine opportunity to acquire a smart, well-maintained example of the iconic British sports car. With its strong history file it should attract keen interest from those looking for an accessible and enjoyable classic.

£3,000 - £4,000
