Since then the car has been fitted with new wire wheels, a new interior, new chrome bumpers, a new braking system, and a new convertible hood. In addition, the engine was removed to detail both it and the engine bay, and a boot-mounted luggage rack has been installed. An exceptionally solid example that presents well and drives beautifully, this delightful MGA Roadster in ready to use and enjoy.
