1950 M.G. MIDGET SERIES TD
1950 M.G. MIDGET SERIES TDEstimate $20,000 – $30,000
'No car has done more than the M.G. Midget to bring within the reach of people of all ages and often of comparatively slender means, the pleasures and benefits of the specialised form of motoring which can be enjoyed only in an open car, and preferably one of what is known as sports type.' So said The Autocar Magazine in January 1950 in its road test for the M.G. Midget Series TD two-seater.
Featuring greater comfort and easier handling, a wider body and sturdier general construction, wishbone-type coil spring independent front suspension, piston-type shock absorbers and the latest Lockheed braking system, the new TD had a 1250cc four-cylinder engine capable of a top speed of over 130 km/h.
This is a very tidy TD in excellent condition throughout and performs well. It was restored using all original parts from the UK in 1972. Finished in dark green with black guards, this vehicle is fine example of this popular M.G. model.
