Gateway Classic Cars of St. Louis is proud to digitally present
this fine 1961 MG MGA 1600 MkII Coupe, a timeless symbol of British
motoring craftsmanship. Finished in an elegant Old English White
over a deep red interior, this MGA captures the essence of postwar
sports car design - refined, lightweight, and built for pure driver
engagement.
Under the bonnet lies the spirited 1.6-liter inline-four paired
with a 4-speed manual gearbox, delivering a wonderfully mechanical
and connected driving experience. The MkII variant represented the
final and most refined evolution of the MGA line, featuring subtle
styling updates and improved performance that made it a standout
among its contemporaries.
This particular example embodies the charm and simplicity that made
the MGA so beloved by enthusiasts around the world. The red
interior provides a vibrant contrast to the crisp exterior, while
the classic banjo-style steering wheel and minimalist gauges
preserve the authentic feel of 1960s British motoring. Radial tires
enhance drivability while maintaining the period-correct
appearance.
The MGA's reputation was built on balance, poise, and beauty - and
this coupe delivers on every front. Whether admired at a concours
or enjoyed on a scenic backroad, this 1961 MGA MkII remains a
rolling piece of motoring art.
This 1961 MG MGA 1600 MkII Coupe can be seen at the St. Louis
