I am selling my beloved MG Midget in order to pay my college loan payments. I purchased this car more than 3 years ago and had a mechanic work on it. I paid almost $6,000 for parts and labor. My lifestyle changed since then and I went back to college. I drove it for just ~600 miles since the mechanic worked on it. Currently, this car is mechanically in GOOD condition. NO major problem in engine. It starts and drives great. Transmission is very smooth. All electrical switches and lights are working properly. It passed the smog check last time when I registered it. It should pass it right now as well. This car needs someone who can LOVE and take care of it. I can't do it at this moment. Exterior: - May need a new paint. There are some scratches here and there. There is also small dent on the hood. - May need a new top if you want to drive it under rain. I haven't driven it under rain. - Need new tires. Current tires are not in good condition even though they are still drivable. Look at the photo. Interior: - May need a new carpet. Current one doesn't look so good. Look at the photo. Mechanical: - NO major issues. It drives good and shifts smoothly through all gears. Look at the list below to see the work done on this car. I have all original receipts from the mechanic.
