Vehicle Description
Isn't it funny how just about any classic British sedan (saloon)
looks like rolling opulence? After all, you may know MG for their
sports cars, but once you see the upright grille and trunkback
body, there are immediate thoughts of Rolls-Royce and Austin. But
this 1947 MG YA has even more distinction. It's part of the era of
hand-crafted cars, and so they are scarce - there were only about
6200 produced over a four-year run. Most of these didn't make it to
the USA, and in fact, this example was imported from South Africa.
Those who have these rare cars cherish them, and this was given a
comprehensive restoration under its long-term owner. So while many
enthusiasts may not know that the Y-Series existed, when people see
this excellently restored YA model, they will never forget it.

the wheel, there's an old-world kind of charm that only comes from
a traditionally-style Brit. It all adds up to the kind of
irresistible personality that will have you making space in your
garage for this distinct sedan. Call today!!!
