I've decided to sell one toy to buy another. Here's a pic of my '71 MG Midget, it's a pretty neat car, but is never driven. Maybe I'll sell it and get a SD?

Ceej, this is your chance man!

Oh Lord, this was bad, I'm sorry

I'll remember that, tosser

I'll bet I wouldn't need blocks on the pedals anymore though

The Seadweller would be a lot easier to wear than the MG.

I think one of them might tell the time, too!

The SD won't use as much gas!!

djemmtee · 20 September 2006, 10:51 AM

and it will also save you on the insurance premiums.

howitzer · 20 September 2006, 11:25 AM

A new SD would look sweet on your left wrist hanging out of the window on that Midge!!! My suggestion is to eat mac & cheese for a couple of months to pay for the watch!!

astcell · 20 September 2006, 11:43 AM

Is that all you want for it is an SD? I am in Tampa, let me see it! I'll have to look that car up and see what it is, I have never seen one before.

I'm 6'4, would I even fit?

Launch Mini · 20 September 2006, 01:24 PM

With the roof down, no problem.

astcell · 20 September 2006, 01:34 PM

Oh, I'd look like one of those cartoon characters!

miner · 20 September 2006, 01:38 PM

That MG is immaculate, must be worth more than $4700

I'll send you my sd, you send me the car

astcell · 20 September 2006, 01:39 PM

Shipping to Australia is the killer!

The darn thing also has the steering wheel on the wrong side.

Tell me about it, it's also got the speedo in miles, or some other antiquated imperial measurement...

You can only put fuel in it thats measured in gallons...

and I don't suppose its off road capabilities are up to much either.

But its still a sweet motor

RogerF · 20 September 2006, 05:21 PM

those midgets are cool cars, cant you sell your mother in law or something to finance your next purchase??

JJ Irani · 20 September 2006, 05:33 PM

This is quite a hilarious thread!!

Hey Jeff, the SD will tell you the time, but how will you get from A to B?

padi56 · 20 September 2006, 05:50 PM

Great British classic Jeff, had a few frogeye sprites and a Austin Healey 3000,at the moment helping my son restore a Triumph TR7.

colemanitis · 20 September 2006, 09:26 PM

Thanks for the compliments guys. This is not my daily driver - it's been sitting in my garage for two years and I've only taken her out a few times.

Yes, this car is worth more than a new SD, so I wouldn't want an even trade.

And a very nice car it is too!

Ever thought of ditching it for a MKII Jag?

topher · 20 September 2006, 11:09 PM

As much as I love my GMT II, that is one great car. I had a MG when I was in high school. I think an MG might be my next toy after seeing those pics. Really cool.
