Description
The TF was the day-before-yesterday?s sports car.
As for the TF 1250, with the windscreen folded flat, wearing your driving gloves and embarked on a twisty road, you can drive yourself back into a simpler world where the maximum is 80 miles per hour and 50-55 is a thrill.
Only 9604 TFs were produced compared with 29, 664 TDs, 10, 000 TCs, 379 TBs and 3003 TAs.
The beauty of this tiny gem of a car is its simplicity and integrity. Like every other T Series MG and even the MGA and MGB it has more dynamic ability than performance.
ABOUT THIS CAR
Chassis #: HDC26/ 6164
Original Engine #: XPAG / TF35954
This car is in mint condition - nothing to fault.
RESTORATION - BODY : Albeit no restoration records are available, we note that this car would have had all panels removed, taken apart, checked and old paint removed to bare steel. Ash frame redone. Wheels sand blasted and powder coated in original silver grey colour. All chrome parts would have been redone. Body and panels refitted to chassis, doors all close well. All wiring would have been replaced and all instruments are in working order.
RESTORATION - INTERIOR: New interior panels would have been fitted and seats were recovered in leather in what looks to be the original red colour. New carpet was fitted as per original style. New side curtain fabric on restored metal frames and new Moss hood in original tan stay-fast fabric were all professionally fitted.
Comes complete with spare wheel, jack and original owners manual
Beautiful Condition in pretty much perfect working order.
This car goes very well with good acceleration including up hills and pulls strongly in all gears. The handling is impressive and the car is a pleasure to drive. Maintains good oil pressure and good water temperature.
Clearly well maintained and serviced Vehicle - Original certificate of registration available.
NOTE that we are familiar with the car through clubs, garages etc and also know some of its previous owners and can confirm its integrity.
The TF represented the end of the fabulous "T-Series"cars from MG and the more powerful 1500cc was built as the last of the TF's.
A rare and appreciating sports car with very low mileage (circa 30K miles since restoration) in mint condition.
Car will be sold WOF'd and registered IF sold in New Zealand.
