Description
Mrs. Möllefors kept the car until 1988, when it passed into the care of another woman from Malmö. She remained its owner until 2007, when the GT found a new home in Kristianstad. There, the current owner acquired the car in August 2017.
Since then, it has seen only light summer use and has been conscientiously maintained. Work carried out during the current ownership includes a rebuild of the carburettors, refurbishment of the brake and clutch hydraulic systems, and the installation of a new alternator.
The most recent—and, under current regulations, final—approved roadworthiness inspection was completed on 6 August 2017.

Technical data
Condition
-
Mechanical condition
Starts readily when the choke is used correctly and settles into the characteristic burble expected of an MG with a proper exhaust system. The overdrive works well and is a welcome companion on the road at modern traffic speeds. The rear leaf springs show some surface rust that looks worse than it is and would be easy to address cosmetically. The engine bay has an honest, well-used appearance. Relatively new batteries—two 12-volt units connected in parallel—provide plenty of extra starting power.
-
Interior condition
Attractive, complete, and clean interior in original specification. Neat instruments and controls, along with a classic riveted wooden steering wheel that adds a sporting touch. A loose trim panel is present on the inside of the tailgate.
-
Exterior condition
Older repaint in presentable and respectable condition with normal signs of use. A few filler-related paint bubbles and some blistering on the right rear wing. Chrome wire wheels with minor surface rust that should polish away relatively easily. The remaining chrome trim is in good condition, although the front bumper overriders are missing. The Webasto sunroof is watertight, intact, and a particularly appealing feature.
-
General condition
An honest driver-quality example that still represents its marque—and the accessible, affordable British sports car of the 1960s—very well. Here presented in its updated 1970s guise, featuring details such as a padded dashboard, head restraints, black grille, and rubber-faced bumper overriders.
