1960 MG A Roadster

KEY FACTS A charming and iconic classic open-top sports car, this MGA 1600 Roadster is presented in a classic colour scheme and benefits from a recent clutch replacement. It is powered by a naturally aspirated 1.6-litre inline-four engine, driving the rear wheels via a four-speed manual transmission. First registered in 1960, this example was previously registered abroad before being imported and first registered in the UK in June 2015 and converted to right-hand drive. It has only recently been acquired by the seller. The odometer indicates 86,947 miles, though this is not warranted. EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES Finished in Dove Grey with a red leather-trimmed interior, complemented by a black soft-top roof and full weather gear. It rides on a set of 15-inch chrome cross-spoke wire wheels with two-spoke knock-offs, fitted with Nankang Econex whitewall tyres. Equipment includes seat belts, a rear luggage rack, a four-spoke 'banjo-style' steering wheel, Jaeger gauges, and a heater. Accompanied by a Heritage Certificate, photos of the car, registration documents, and a collection of maintenance invoices and MOT certificates. One ignition key is included. CONDITION Please refer to the photo gallery to assess the exterior and interior condition. The most recent MOT test was on 16 November 2023 at an indicated 86,851 miles, which resulted in a second-time pass with no advisories. SERVICE HISTORY The last maintenance was in May 2025 by MG specialist Mattborn Classics, which included a new clutch being fitted, a new throttle cable, a replacement manifold gasket, new carburettor gaskets, a new battery, and four new tyres. The seller states that the interior has been retrimmed, new marine-ply flooring has been fitted in the cockpit, and a new tonneau cover was fitted during current ownership.
