MG MGA - MGA Bargain

This car is a bargain from a well known retailer - jump in now in the USA

http://www.ebay.com/itm/MG-A-Roadster-/222212268379?forcerrptr=true&hash=item33bce2215b:g:wkAAAOSw0UdXp3qD&item=222212268379

It must be cheap MGA month. A friend of mine just picked up a similar one for about $8K.
Steve Simmons

Excellent original car? Fender welting has been painted over, so I don't think so. I'd be very hesitant to bid on that one without a personal inspection.
Larry Wheeler

Looking at the pix, the respray was not masked off too well.

The left door does not fit well.

Check out the frame rot along the bottom.

The interior needs a lot of help.

Front bumper does not fit well and notice the dent left of center.

This is just a quick look on the line pix. So the eBay price of $12k is a bit steep for what the car needs to make it respectable ride.

Why do people list cars with no photos of the engine bay, interior, boot and underside - without these photos I am instantly suspicious!
Mike Ellsmore

Those who are knowledge about classic cars (or any car for that matter) will always be suspicious of the car and the seller if information is lacking or misleading; those who know little knowledge or those who buy on impulse or emotion, are the ones who get hurt in the end (sad but true). Knowledge always trumps the lack thereof.
Nick Kopernik

well someone agreed with me because it has now been sold. On the
beverlyhillscarclub.com site there were all the pictures you could ask for. They have a few more cars to look at
Dominic Clancy

I agree Dominic...regardless of the fault spotters out there, it was still a good buy in terms of UK/OZ buyers.
Gary Lock

Well, as the auction pundits say..."well sold"!
George G.

Not that much of a bargain for UK buyers at the moment, due to poor exchange rates.
