​This factory-original right-hand-drive (RHD) MGB Roadster was manufactured for the domestic market from December 18th to 20th, 1957. It was subsequently dispatched to an MG dealer on January 1st, 1958.

 

Originally finished in Old English White with a red trim and black hood, the car came equipped with disc wheels, an adjustable steering column, windscreen washers, an ashtray, a black tonneau cover, twin horns, a badge bar, and a fog lamp.
The car's history file includes a British Motor Museum Heritage Certificate.

 

Finished in Old English White with a luxurious red leather interior, this 1958 UK MGA 1500cc is a classic beauty. Restored within the last ten years, this stunning example not only looks fantastic today but also performs excellently on the road.

 

The restoration involved a full body-off-chassis rebuild, along with engine and gearbox refurbishments. The engine has only clocked 60 miles since the final part of the restoration was completed. Although the history of the car is limited due to the passing of the owner leading the restoration, the final touches were completed earlier this year by a classic car enthusiast in the West Midlands. This 1958 MGA comes with a heritage certificate, and the V5C shows that the car has had only three owners to date.

 

The Old English White paintwork is in excellent condition throughout. The brightwork is immaculate, retaining original fittings wherever possible.
The vinyl hood, full tonneau cover, aluminium frame side screens, and hood frame were all replaced earlier this year.

 

The underside of the car is equally impressive, featuring a stripped and painted chassis and new floors. Most parts of the car have been either fully refurbished or replaced with new ones during the restoration. The interior boasts beautiful new red leather seats, matching carpets, a soft top, and a tonneau cover.

 

The registration number 9362 KV will remain with the car.

This stunning 1958 MGA starts on the button and has a throaty sound making it an absolute joy to drive. This MGA is ready for some top-down summer driving.

​

This is a rare opportunity to own an immaculate example of a British classic that promises to appreciate in value over time.

History Of The 1955 - 1959 MG MGA :

The MGA was a true leap into the modern age for MG when it was launched at the Earls Court motor show in 1955. From the exposed running boards and mudguards of the outgoing TF, MG moved to a sleek, low-slung and streamlined body that was beautiful to behold and easily the match of anything coming out of Italy at the time. Following MG's absorption into BMC, it came as no surprise to see its latest sports car make great use of the corporation's parts bin—so it was powered by a 68-bhp version of the 1489-cc B-Series engine, although pretty much all of the rest of it was brand new. Only some elements of the TD's suspension system and its rack-and-pinion steering were carried over.

​

Performance was more than a match for the opposition, and MG it seemed had produced a sports car that everyone wanted. The 0-60mph time was a very respectable 14 seconds, and its maximum speed of 95 mph proved the effectiveness of the aerodynamics. But without doubt, for 1955's sports car buyer, the leap from TF to MGA must have been hard to comprehend.

 

The MGA was offered in both roadster and coupe forms, and in both cases, it was drop-dead gorgeous. But it didn't stand still, and in May 1959, the four-cylinder B-Series was uprated to 1.6-litres for the Mk2 facelift. Lockheed front discs made their first appearance at the same time. But sports cars buyers were a discerning lot, and they always wanted more—and MG was keen to deliver something a little more special. In 1958, the company duly delivered with the MGA Twin Cam.

​

Harry Weslake designed a new alloy twin-cam cylinder head for the B-series engine, and the net gain was improved breathing and considerably more top-end power. It was expensive new, and is far more valuable than its pushrod counterparts today with good reason. It delivered 108 bhp at 6500 rpm, and a maximum speed of up to 120 mph in the right conditions. But there were other improvements, too—the Twin Cam had Dunlop knock-off wheels and all-round disc brakes. And undoubtedly, the MGA Twin Cam had a certain Q-car appeal in its day.

​

There were problems, of course. The engine cost a fortune to make, and needed owners to feed it a diet of 100-octane petrol. It was also fragile in service, with known weaknesses from the pistons and bottom-end. Today, all of those weaknesses have been cured, even though a Twin Cam is expensive to rebuild. The sales speak for themselves: 2,111 Twin Cams were made alongside more than 101,000 B-Series MGAs.

​​

But the standard MGA is a delightful thing, and many owners opt to install an MGB engine when more performance is desired. There are a few points you need to look out for when considering buying and running an MGA, most notably corrosion. The floors are wooden, but the sills, valences and wings are all weak spots. Luckily, the bonnet, bootlid and doors are aluminium, so they're less of a concern. But these are a well enough known quantity that you're really not too far from a specialist who can help you find the right example. In sum, it is a nice, likeable British sports car—and far less obvious than its ubiquitous replacement.
