This charming example is a 1953 MG TD finished in Green with a lovely contrasting Ivory interior and hood. First registered on 20th July 1953, the MG now shows 000660 miles, which has possibly gone round the clock or reset after restoration.
Outside, it presents superbly well - the Green paintwork is in good condition and the front and rear bumper have recently been rechromed. The interior appears to be relatively new, showing no obvious sign of rips, tears, or major wear. It is the same story for the hood, which is fully operational.
Subject to a fairly recent restoration, this truly is a smart example. This MG is on the button and drives superbly well, ready for plenty of roof-down motoring miles to come.
