WJO is a well-cared for Midget. She starts immediately and is impressive on the road with very good oil pressure, low/normal water temperature and has strong brakes, smooth gearbox and sharp steering. Importantly, the floorpans are very good and the car appears to be corrosion free. WJO could be enjoyed as-is or improved cosmetically (paintwork and chrome) should that be desired, either whilst being used, or as an over winter improvement project.
In summary, an opportunity for very affordable entry into classic car ownership; with great spares support and a very active owner’s club, what better ‘starter classic’ than this 1275 RWA MG Midget!
