Descrizione

• Classic MG A 1600 – one of the most beloved British roadsters
• Reliable 1,588 cc four-cylinder engine with manual gearbox
• Equipped with front disc brakes – advanced for its time
• Older professional restoration

The MG A 1600 is one of the most iconic British sports cars of the 1950s and 1960s. With its low, elegant lines and classic roadster proportions, it perfectly captures the essence of open-top motoring: pure, mechanical and free from unnecessary complexity.

The 1600 version represented an important evolution within the MGA range and remains highly appreciated by enthusiasts today. Thanks to its more powerful and reliable engine, along with the introduction of front disc brakes, this model already offered improved performance and safety compared to its predecessors. This combination makes the MGA 1600 one of the most appealing versions within the MGA lineup today.

This 1960 example is finished in red and powered by the 1,588 cc four-cylinder engine, paired with a manual gearbox. The car underwent a professional restoration in the past and today presents in an honest condition with visible signs of use.

For the enthusiast seeking a characterful MGA offering driving pleasure, classic styling and potential, this represents a particularly interesting opportunity.
