Current V5 present. Paperwork includes MG wallet containing owners handbooks, previous partial V5s, photos, MOT certificates, Haynes manual, Austin Healey Sprite owners workshop manual, Sprite Midget workshop manual, MG parts catalogue, and invoices.

The vendor has provided the following:

  • 1980 MG Midget Dark Blue
  • My dad bought this 1980 MG Midget in November 2020 as a restoration project, but sadly passed away before completing it. I inherited the car, and had it made roadworthy by a local MG specialist, but I just don’t have the time or experience to maintain a classic car like this. I feel it needs to go to someone who will enjoy it and give it the care it deserves. All paperwork from my dad, the previous owner, and recent work is included.
