A lovely old MG TA which has been in the same family for some 29 years, during which the car has been well maintained.  The car was extensively restored by a previous owner, which we think included a new body tub, a repaint, new upholstery and an overhaul of the mechanics.  Two very good modifications have been made to the car, namely, the fitting of a transverse friction shocker at the rear and more recently, the vast improvement of the steering by changing the steering box to a more modern one (not VW as normal – we will tell you what it is if you buy the car!!).  The result of all of this is that the car drives better than any other TA we have ever driven.  There is an invoice in the file from 2017 for an overhaul of the engine, and a new clutch was fitted in 2021, together with a service of the braking system.  The paintwork is generally in good condition with some aging as you would expect, the upholstery is good with nice oxblood-coloured seating and black carpets – the latter of which are a little worn.  The PVC hood is in pretty good condition, as is the tonneau cover;  the four side-screens are in need of a revamp.  The underside is nice and sound.  The five wire wheels are all nicely stove enamelled.  Driving the car is a pleasure – plenty of power, easy gearbox and clutch and as already mentioned above, very good steering.  The car is priced to reflect that it would benefit from a full service, and that a few jobs need attending to – nothing major.  Comes with V5C, two old log books, a buff continuation book from 1957, and old MOT certificates dating back to 1986.
