Registration No: LGE 421 Chassis No: TD29132 MOT: ExemptFinished attractively in Black complemented to a Cream interiorFitted with Silver wire wheels and rear luggage rackGood paperwork file of manuals, old MOTs and receiptsSupplied with a continuation VE60 and a current V5CAlthough, instantly recognisable as a T-series model thanks to its perpendicular radiator shell, flowing wings and rear-mounted spare wheel, the TD broke important new ground for the Abingdon marque. The first MG sportscar to feature either independent double-wishbone front suspension or rack and pinion steering, the newcomer also boasted a hypoid-bevel back axle, hidden scuttle reinforcement hoop (save for the first few cars) and twin leading-shoe front brakes. Powered by the proven 1250cc XPAG engine allied to four-speed manual transmission, it was reputedly capable of 82mph and 26mpg. Riding on fifteen-inch steel wheels as standard, although this example is fitted with the optional wire wheels, the TD also sported a mirror-image dashboard (thus facilitating either LHD or RHD production) and chrome-plated bumpers. A great success story, the vast majority of the 29,665 cars produced were sold overseas.Finished attractively in Black complemented to a Cream interior, 'LGE 421' was purchased by the vendor 14 years ago and enjoyed by him for attending vintage shows and rallies, he is now reluctantly having let it go due to ill health. The MG appears to have spent a lot of its life in the Lake District and is thought to have been on display in a car showroom in Barrow In Furness for many years. The green VE60 continuation logbook issued in 1970 and included in the sale, shows its date of first registration as the 16th July 1953 on 'LGE 421' with engine number 29577, but at some point it has been fitted with a 'BMC Replacement Engine' numbered D01018 according to the plate riveted onto the cases. It is not known when this change occurred, but the V5C shows this new number. The MG has not had much use in the last couple of years, it started and ran whilst being photographed but will need recommissioning before use. Fitted with wire wheels, rear luggage rack and full weather equipment, the soft-top looks to be in good condition and goes up and down freely. There is a paperwork file including 19 old MOTs dating from 1995, a few receipts, a driver's handbook and a lubrication chart, as well as the VE60 and V5C registration documents.
