experience. Finished in bright red paint with a contrasting beige
and black interior, the MG A features a stylish banjo steering
wheel and 7,000 RPM tachometer. On the outside, chrome bumpers and
bright wire wheels shod with Michelin tires adorn the car.Cecil
Kimber founded Morris Garagesor MGin the 1920s. During World War
II, American soldiers serving in Europe became familiar with small
British sports cars. Its no accident that there was a big push to
import these cars into the U.S. in the postwar years. MG took great
advantage of this sentiment with cars that were affordable,
attractive and lightweight. Its cars had a fun-to-drive quality
that was not available on the bigger American cars at that time. MG
moved its design language dramatically forward to modern times when
the MG A replaced the MG TF for the 1955 model year. In 1951, MGs
Syd Enever designed a sleek streamlined body for privateer racer
George Phillips and his MG TD Le Mans racer. Later, a new low-slung
chassis was fitted to the car, and a prototype that eventually
became known as the MG A was born. It was an entirely new model
that would set the design language for MG for decades to come. By
the time production ended in 1962, more than 100,000 examples of
the MG A had been built, setting the stage for the forthcoming MG
B.Its fitting that the MG A was born out of a racing car, as the
eventual production version won several regional and national
championships and remains a popular choice for vintage racing
today. With race-proven handling characteristics combined with an
open-air experience, the fun factor of the MG A is hard to beat.
