MG MGA 1955-1962
What is your favourite car of all time?
It was a proud day in Abingdon's history in March 1962 when the 100,000th MGA was produced. Total MGA production of all types amounted to 101,081 of which 2,111 were Twin-cams. The 100,000 mark of "pushrod" cars was missed by a mere 1,030 units. The MGA Mk2 was introduced in June 1961 at the same time as the Sprite - based on the MG Midget. Styling changes included a new grille with near-vertical bars and inside the car a new padded facia added to the safety of the MkII MGA. Behind the engine bay outlets the legend "1600 MkII" also appeared to identify the model further. Replaced by the MGB in 1962, the MGA remains as one of Abingdon's finest creations. Its smooth lines and seductive shape make it one of the all-time classic British sports-cars.
