Dieser MG Midget wurde von Grund auf restauriert und es wurde sehr viel Passion und Geld investiert. Kaum zu glauben! Die ganze Karosserie wurde sandgestrahlt und neu aufgebaut. Dies wurde äusserst gut und fachmännisch gemacht. Die Mechanik wurde ebenfalls komplett revidiert. Das Fahrzeug steht in einem Top-Zustand da und macht sehr viel Freude.
