This is a very interesting example, originally supplied to the Lancashire police force in 1955 (obviously, black at that time), who used the car until 1959 when it was sold on.  This is an original 1500 model, but later in its life, at the time of its extensive restoration, a 1250 version of the XPAG engine from another TF was fitted.  For the following 40 years, the car went ‘under the radar’ but we have paperwork from 1999 onwards.  In the years leading up to 1999 and for some years afterwards, the car was completely restored, including new body tub, reconditioned ‘Fast Road’ engine with unleaded head, installation of a 5-speed gearbox, interior re-trim, full repaint, and full overhaul of mechanics.  Four good tyres are fitted on to first class disc wheels – nice to see these for a change.  The result is an excellent car which has been kept in very good condition by its various custodians, including the current owner who has had the car since 2017.  The chrome work is in good condition, the under-bonnet area is clean and tidy and the structure and underside of the car are in good order.  Driving the car is a delight, with very good performance and the nice 5-speed gearbox, which makes the car very useable in today’s traffic.  Good oil pressure, no overheating, nice quiet suspension and transmission, all in all, a very good car.  Comes with file of paperwork, including photograph of it in its police livery, V5C, MOT to April 2025 and verification document from the MG Car Club.

There is a short video of this car on both our Facebook and Instagram pages.
