MG MGA 1600 MkIICabriolet 1962
General description :
Schönes und technisch besonders gutes Fahrzeug! Dieser MG war nun fast 30 Jahre in gleichem Besitz und wurde in all den Jahren immer gefahren und hat viel Freude gemacht. Die Karosserie wurde in diesen 30 Jahren nie restauriert und so gibt es diverse Gebrauchspuren. Das ist auch der Grund, warum der Wagen die Veteranen-Zulassung nicht mehr hat. Das Verdeck wurde vor kurzem ersetzt und ist neuwertig, die Persenning und die Steckfenster sind ebenfalls dabei. Mechanisch wurde der Wagen in all den Jahren sorgfältig gepflegt und gewartet. Im Jahr 2020 hat man eine grössere Überholung gemacht (Zylinderkopfdichtung, Getriebe revidiert, Kupplung ersetzt etc. - Rechnung von CHF 9'000.- ist vorhanden). MFK 6.2024. Im Vergleich zu seinen Vorgängern ist der MGA MKII mit einem grösseren Motor ausgestattet und wurde lediglich von 1961 - 1962 produziert.
