Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1971 MG Midget MkIII, finished in Blaze Orange, presents as a late 'square-arch' model with 84,321 miles. While recently serviced with new hoses and air filter and having passed an advisory-free MoT last year, a noisy rear suspension indicates that some mechanical attention is required.

Condition 

6

The car is a late MkIII Midget, registered just before the transition to round arches. It has a Blaze Orange finish and has been used regularly by the vendor for the last 18 months, though personal circumstances prevented full enjoyment. It passed an MoT last year with no advisories, though it has now expired. The odometer reads 84,321 miles. Recent work includes new coolant hoses and air filter. However, the rear suspension is noted as noisy, indicating a need for some reconditioning.

Description

1098cc, manual.

This MG Midget is a late square-arch Mk

III, registered just a few days before production of the round-arch models began in December 1971.

Finished in Blaze Orange, it was purchased by the vendor 18 months ago for regular use, but personal circumstances have prevented him from enjoying it.

It passed an advisory-free Mo

T last year, which has now expired (although as a historic vehicle it is exempt from testing requirements).

It comes with a few receipts from 2018-onwards, a collection of tax discs, and the V5C which indicates 5 former keepers.

The vendor tells us that it has recently received new coolant hoses and a new air filter, and advises that the rear suspension is noisy.

The odometer is showing 84,321 miles.
