• Early Mk I model
• Desirable Tartan Red finish
• Heritage certificate

A delightful early example of the MG Midget Mk I, finished in the ever-popular Tartan Red, and offered as a correct home market right-hand drive car with accompanying heritage certificate.

Produced by MG, the Mk I Midget is one of the purest expressions of the classic British lightweight sports car, simple, engaging and full of character.

Introduced in 1961, the Mk I Midget was closely related to the Austin-Healey Sprite, featuring a compact, lightweight construction and a lively A-Series engine

Early Mk I cars such as this are particularly sought after for their simplicity and classic styling.

Finished in Tartan Red, the car presents in a period-correct and highly desirable colour scheme that suits the Midget’s compact proportions. The Mk I’s simple lines, chrome detailing and low stance give it enduring visual appeal, making it a popular choice at classic events and shows.

The interior retains the classic early Midget layout with a simple, uncluttered dashboard

As with all early British sports cars, the emphasis is on driving enjoyment rather than luxury, and the cabin reflects this ethos.

This example is offered with the Heritage certificate present, confirming the original factory details and is a UK home market, right-hand drive example. These factors add to the car’s desirability and authenticity.

The MG Midget Mk I remains one of the most enjoyable and accessible entry points into classic sports car ownership.

A charming and engaging classic, ideal for enthusiasts seeking simple, open-top motoring with genuine 1960s character.
