I fell in love with British Sports Cars back in 1968, nd I absolutely love this car! It’s a Red on Red, GA Twin Cam with 108 hp from a stunningly beautiful 1588 cc, win Overhead Cam Engine, ept immaculately clean throughout. This is a Level One (1), ward winning Car that has the perfect balance between weight and power. Coupled with tight, esponsive rack & pinion steering and four wheel disk brakes, t is a dashing experience. The seating posture is just right, nd the windscreen is proportioned and positioned accurately to provide a thrilling, et comfortable and fun ride.

Developed from MG’s racing heritage and in response to its counterparts in racing, nly 2,111 Twin Cams were produced. Today, Twin Cam commands a significant premium among collectors, ue to their rarity and significant boost in performance over the standard MGA and other competitors.

This is a stunning, roperly restored and well sorted example, inished in dark red with red leather interior, ashboard, ockpit rails and black top. The car also features side curtains, onneau cover, orrect Dunlop center lock knock-off wheels, roper jack and period vintage tool roll. Every effort has been made to keep this car as an original example, ith superb restoration, hroughout.

Early on, GA Twin Cams gained a reputation for mechanical fragility. Today, hose issues have been resolved. When properly set-up, s is this car, win Cams are the reliable and exhilarating driving experience for which they were designed.

This testament comes from decades of driving experience in various British Sports Cars. This one is the most fun … hands down!
