Vehicle Description
1959 MG MGA Roadster for sale. Motorcar Classics is proud to
present this 1959 MGA Roadster featured in Glacier Blue with Grey
leather interior and black vinyl convertible top. This is an early
1957 model with the 1489 cc engine fitted with twin H4 type SU
Carburettors producing 72 hp. Mated to a four-speed manual
transmission the MGA features independent front suspension,
rack-and-pinion steering and a solid rear axle with leaf springs
that delivery the kind of lively handling that British roadsters
are known for. It has Lockheed hydraulic drum brakes on all wheels.
The most recent owner cherished the car for over twenty years and
has receipts and documentation for a total off-frame not and bolt
restoration that he completed about ten years ago. MGAs are ideal
first collector cars. Look closely at the lines and notice the
resemblance to Jaguars iconic XK-120 that was a contemporary
design. Theyre affordable, simple to work on, rugged and
attractive. Parts are readily available and moderately priced. This
car is well-sorted and a delight to drive, and is still a car you
can show with pride.
