Comments from the seller

Good solid example of an MG Y Type. Low km with only 46,377 original miles on the clock. Would benefit from a respray or enjoy as is. Very good mechanical condition. Used as a regular driver. The jackall system still works as do the semaphore indicators (but also has modern flashing turn indicators also). Does not use oil (but does drip a little, as good old English cars tend to do). Happy to answer any questions. Priced to sell.
