1954 MG TD/TF

This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at the NEC Classic Motor Show 2026 on Sunday the 15th of November, NEC, Birmingham, B40 1NT. Estimated price: GBP 14,000 - GBP 16,000.

Introduced in September 1953, the MG TF was based on the same chassis and mechanical components as the TD Mark II. The centre section of the body shell remained virtually the same as that of the TD but the most significant change was to adopt a sloping radiator grille that, for the first time, concealed a separate radiator

Initially the car was launched with the faithful 1,250cc XPAG engine that made its debut in the TB Midget back in 1939

Dating from 1954, this attractive example is finished in MG Red with chrome wire wheels, biscuit/beige interior, new red carpets and beige soft top, side-screens and tonneau

Classic TF dashboard with octagonal instruments, Bakelite switch gear and a sprung wheel

Restored some years ago, the car has remained within the present custodian’s private collection in recent years

Recent attention has been directed towards the braking system, with the wheel cylinders, brake hoses and master cylinders overhauled as required.

Having spent recent years within a private collection, it would benefit from the usual checks appropriate to a car of this age before returning to regular use.

An appealing opportunity for the enthusiast seeking a handsome 1950s MG, ready to be enjoyed and appreciated by its next custodian.
