Description
1973 MG Midget MkIII
One of the last and most
desirable Midgets which comes with bundles of paperwork spanning from 1973 to
the present day; many owners but appears to have always been used; reluctant
sale
First
dispatched by Stewart and Arden in Croyden to Miss Susan Smith, this MG Midget
was initially well maintained, as recorded by the 12 stamps in its little
service booklet between 1973 and 1983, steadily taking her to 60,000 miles. In
fact, there is almost every MOT ever performed on this car in the file.
Further to
this, there are quite a number of other invoices recording general maintenance,
including repairs to both wings in 1983, new hood in 1986 and further bodywork
attended to in 1988.
Mileage has
been added on a regular basis here by all eleven keepers over the years so we
think it has probably covered close to 120,000 in total. Not a low mileage few
owner car and certainly has a few panels that are a slightly different shade of
white to the others, but it runs, drives, stops and has been used and maintained
mechanically for much of its life. The last recorded MOT was in 2016, so the
advisory issues mentioned which include corrosion to the suspension components
may need attending to, but it was driven to our site for the auction - it will be sorely missed by the young
family selling it and is sure to give the next owner some MG
joy.
