Chassis no. GHNL2108480; Engine no. 16GC-U-H8809. Red with tan cloth top over red leather. 1622/93hp, modern 5-speed, Dunlop alloy wheels, Talbot Berlin mirror, luggage rack, badge bar, period pushbutton radio, Bluemel’s Brooklands steering wheel.

Evaluation: Rare DeLuxe model. One of 395 built late in the A production run with Dunlop wheels from the Twin Cam, plus disc brakes and better seats. There is a small crease in the paint on the left rear but otherwise the exterior of the car looks great. So do the interior and underbody, for that matter. It’s a sharp-looking MGA with options that are highly desirable to people who know these cars.

Bottom Line: And people who know these cars were there in force. The DeLuxe is rarest of MGA variants, and this one sold for a price that borders on Twin Cam money. The car deserves it.
