1973 MG Midget

Classic sports car - Awesome rare 5-speed 1973 MG Midget for sale.
In great condition, had the car just over 3 years, lightly used locally.Looking to sell as moving out of state and want to see it go to a good home.Very fun to drive and very easy to look after. Has been kept garaged.
Kept service and repairs up as necessary. Previous owner to us kept it in great shape. He had the engine replaced 6 years ago along with the input of the 5 speed manual transmission. Has great power and performance and makes a big difference than the standard 4 speed gearbox.
Since we have owned the car we have had services done that includes:Nov 2016 - New BatteryJul 2016 - New Tires all round + new oil hose to engineSep 2014 - New choke cable + Installed right side door mirror
Kept up with annual service at Old English Garage that only deals with classic cars.
Custom Licence plate "MG BABY"
Radio and CD has been installed in the glove box along with some discreet speakers to update the entertainment in the car. Main radio and cassette player are still in the center console.
Disclosures: Minor tiny paint chips on bonnet and drivers door. Could be filled with a paint pen. Also just had a tiny chip in the windscreen from a stone, it is not even seen while driving as behind the mirror area for driver.
Looking to sell quickly. Will answer questions as best I can. I am not mechanically minded, I left that side of things to my mechanic. All I know is that it runs great. Uses a choke to start as standard and not had any issues with that. Holds the road well and is usable on the Highway, but we have kept it to local smaller roads as it is the 'weekend' car.
