Chassis no. HDA462620. Yellow over black leather. 1250/58hp, 4-speed, dual wing mirrors, chrome wire wheels, Michelin XZX tires, rear-mounted spare, leather-wrapped steering wheel, wood shift knob, side curtains, tonneau cover, tools.

Evaluation: Restored in the mid-2000s and got some basic mechanical servicing in 2017. The paint has a few scuffs, scratches and chips, and the grille and mirrors show some dullness. One of the MG badges has a sizable chip. Very clean engine bay. The chassis shows a little age and grime but nothing serious. A handsome, honest older restored MG.

Bottom Line: This TF was a $14,500 no-sale at RM’s Driving Into Summer Online 2020 sale in May, and any good TF deserves significantly more than that. A $25,000 offer, on the other hand, should have seen the car sold.
