The traditional MG: light, quick, with cut-down doors and flowing fenders, and that upright MG grille up front. Evolution was slow at Morris Garage, but there's a reason why cars like this 1952 TD were brought home by the hundreds by GIs returning from Europe, and why they remain wildly popular today.
The look is pure pre-war, with separate fenders and a long hood, but the energetic handling and performance were quite contemporary. This MG has been restored, but not to the point where you're afraid to drive it, which misses the point entirely. The body construction was traditional, but that also means that it's light and easy to repair, and this one shows no signs of serious damage or the MG's arch-nemesis, rust. Hood and door fit are quite good, and the red paint is a very authentic-looking finish that's neither too shiny nor full of metallic, both of which are instant give-aways to incorrect choices. It shows only a few light signs of use, but the overall presentation is what endears MGs to their legions of fans. Of course, things like the chrome grille, stand-alone headlights, and simple bumpers give it an old-fashioned look, and they're all in excellent shape.
Inside the diminutive cabin, there's adequate room for two, and once you settle into the low bucket seat and assume the proper driving position, you'll find it's easy to spend hours behind the wheel without fatigue. Well, maybe your cheeks will be hurting from grinning so much, but the driving experience is involving without being exhausting. The leather seats have been properly reupholstered in pleated tan leather, which matches the door panels that offer useful storage pockets. The lovely dashboard is genuine wood, not a veneer, and houses a full array of Jaeger instruments with wonderful patina and a truly British look. The three spoke steering wheel is still the universal symbol for sports car, and has been completely restored to a high level. And since MG lovers are serious about their cars, this one only offers a split tonneau cover as weather protection, which quickly sorts the men from the boys.
The whole point of an MG isn't brute power, but they're plenty peppy with the 1250cc inline-four, and it has a wonderful baritone exhaust note that's half the experience. This one is a wonderful runner, firing up easily through dual side-draft carburetors with chrome air cleaners. The whole engine is scarcely bigger than a briefcase, but all the parts are easy to get at and maintain, which is the whole point. The engine's linked to a slick-shifting 4-speed manual transmission whose light action and progressive clutch are the cornerstone of performance driving. The chassis is a simple ladder frame, and as I mentioned before, there's zero rust or rot underneath, just a neatly detailed undercarriage. Stock steel wheels with chrome hubcaps look right and wear appropriately tall 165R15 radial tires.
One drive and you'll see why it's so easy to love an MG. Call us today!
