Lot details
Registration No: A756MTW
Chassis No: SAXXCTWY7AM152214
Mot Expiry: June 2016
- Believed genuine 31,800 miles from new
- Condition described as being excellent and concours
- Comprehensive history with copy of original sales invoice
This MG Maestro is one of the early 1600 variants with just 31,800 miles showing on its digital dashboard. The vendor has enjoyed having the 'hot hatch' as part of his MG and Austin collection and variously rates its bodywork and paintwork as 'A+ / concours' and its engine and gearbox as 'excellent'. Informing us that the voice synthesiser is working, he adds 'A very full history file is presented with the car, and compliments what is today, a very rare MG. The car has not suffered the passage of time, the upholstery, and all trim, red carpets and seat belts, herringbone tweed grey cloth such a striking feature of the model, remain undamaged and fresh. As does the whole car, an example it would be very hard to repeat'. Original hand and service books are present, as is a copy of the original sales invoice from Grays Thurrock Motors (Essex), showing central door locking, electric front windows, and a steel sliding sunroof having been chosen as options, along with the metallic Opaline Green livery. The current MOT expires in June 2016.
