1957 MG A 1500 ROADSTER  1000MIGLIA ELIGIBLE

Newly registered in Italy with Turin plate in 1957, it was subsequently sold in Brescia in 1982 where it belonged to two well-known collectors who kept it carefully until 2015, when the car was sold to an English collector who wanted to keep it in Italy to be able to participate in all major local events.

Since then it has been registered in England and with the new English regulations it is no longer necessary to submit it to the MOT TEST.

So the car does not need to return to England periodically to run it.

Over the past 7 years the car has participated in numerous events, the most important of which are:

• 1000 miles 2021
• Nuvolari Trophy 2020
• Nuvolari Trophy 2018
• Winter Marathon

Unfortunately, the Brexit regime does not make it more convenient to register in Italy and, as the owner himself suggests, it would be ideal for an English collector who would like to keep it in Italy to participate in the best events.

In recent years the car has always been assisted in all races and kept in storage by the “Noci Motorclassic” which will be able to continue to do the service for the new owner.

Here are some considerations expressed by the current owner:

“The desirability of any MGA roadster as a model, in good colours such as Old English White and Red interior – I think they are more appreciated each year

The patinated condition of this car as an older restoration – I think this is more desirable than a collection of new parts from a catalogue screwed together

The demonstrated reliability of this car over 7 rallies including the Nuvolari 2018 and 2020 and the MM2021 – in thousands of kms our only problem was a blown fuse.

The prestige that the alloy wheels and lightweight leather steering wheel add to the whole car

The eligibility that the car has for all major rallies in Italy and continental Europe

The car is taxed, insured and road legal. There is no requirement for an annual MOT check due to its age. Noci will confirm that it would easily pass the equivalent Italian test.

It is clear that the tax and customs issue reduces its value to an EU purchaser. For an English buyer intending to compete in ACI rallies as we have done, the car is simply ready to go, with nothing to pay except the transfer of the FIVA passport to the new owner.”
