Giant Killers. That’s what nippy British sports cars like this 1960 MG MGA are often referred to as. Unlike our typical American performance car with its large V8 and massive dimensions, British sports cars use small, frugal engines, dinky dimensions and light weight to punch massively above their class. This also makes them truly exciting to drive because remember, its always more fun to wring out a car to its very last drop of performance rather than be forced to merely toe the throttle for much of your driving time. With cars like the MGA, you can enjoy rorty revving engines and crisp cornering, all without exceeding the speed limit most of the time. If you’d like to get in on the classic British sports car action, this 3,850-mile car currently waits in Fort Mill, South Carolina, for a new owner.
Dressed in the iconic British Racing Green paint code, this 1960 MG MGA is a hardtop which grants it a slightly different vibe to the more common open-topped roadster variants that were also available. The car features Vredestein Sprint Classic tires wrapped around chrome knock-off wire wheels, replete with a matching spare wheel in the trunk. It’s chrome bumpers, chrome headlamp rings and chrome window surrounds add some further glitz to its persona. The interior of this 1960 MG MGA comes in red with two leather-upholstered seats. You’ve got classic Smiths gauges a four-spoke steering wheel and a manual transmission to operate. There’s a small cargo area behind the seats, and little else. If it gets too chilly, you can call upon the car’s heater and demister to keep you warm, but that depends on the engine itself being at operating temperature.
Powered by a 1.6-liter four-cylinder, this 1960 MG MGA is a hoot to drive. The naturally aspirated, water-cooled unit uses twin SU H4 carburetors and makes an awesome sound as you wind it through the revs. It’s paired with a 4-speed manual transmission and drives the rear wheels. You’ve also got front disc and rear drum brakes for a suitably engaging driving experience. What are you waiting for, then?

You may have heard of MG or Morris Garages. This British automaker started life in 1924, founded by a man named Cecil Kimber. Kimber was many things, including a race car driver, innovator, businessman and engineer. He famously said that “a sports car should look fast even when standing still”. No wonder he created some of the best driving machines, and even after his demise in 1945, the company stayed true to his philosophy for many decades thereafter. That’s why a British sports car from the 1950s or 1960s is considered to offer a fantastic driving experience, showcasing that you don’t need a lot of power or a massive engine to have fun. This 1960 MG MGA Mark 1 Coupe is a fine example of that, with its 1.6-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine and 4-speed manual transmission. The car is for sale from Miami, and comes with 85,619 miles to its name.
Are you the sort of person who wants a classic car that’s diminutive, spunky and can really show you a good time? If so, venturing into the quirky world of British Roadsters is a fine rabbit hole to disappear down. Cars like this 1962 MG MGA Mark II were staples of British sports car motoring in their heyday, and today, they continue to offer a driving experience that can really make you have a good time. Their simplicity and lightness means that they are devoid of digital distractions and myriad systems that seem to need software updates at the most inopportune times. Instead, they force you to use all your arms and legs and discover what true driving bliss really can be. Today’s example hails from Kansas and is fresh from a full restoration as reported by the current owner. The car has also received a larger engine, but the original 1.6-liter unit is included, in a crate.
There comes a day when all is quiet on the responsible front, and you have your day opened up, and you just know that you have to make the most of it. You do have many choices. For one, you could stay at home and flick through what's new on Netflix, or you could choose to get out there and drive your heart out. If you choose the second option, you most definitely are in the right, but if you choose the first option, you most definitely know that your free time would have been spent better. Present today is your getaway into driving nirvana, and it takes shape with this lovely 1952 MG TD Roadster. This classic British motor hails from Monterey, Tennessee, and has just a reported 89,208 clocked in.
MG or Morris Garages is still around to this date. They started off as a maker of British family and sports cars, and this 1957 MG Magnette ZB Varitone is one of their stalwarts from the Fifties. It’s a four-door family sedan with a 1.8-liter straight four under the hood, delivering the kind of fuel economy that Fifties American cars could only dream about. This example has covered 75,000 miles and is up for grabs in Cadott, Wisconsin. It’s got a Varitone two-tone paint scheme and also boasts a reupholstered interior.
Imagine if an automaker made a car called Midget today! There would be mass uproar, massive social media campaigns of condemnation and a lot of flak to contend with. The world sure has become a rather touchy place. No such finickiness existed in 1961 when British sports car maker MG or Morris Garages released a diminutive two-seat roadster. They simply called it the Midget because it was one of their smaller offerings. Prior, the Midget nameplate had been seen on some of their other cars too. So what’s so funky about this 1971 MG Midget MKIII from Indiana, Pennsylvania? Well, for starters it’s a fantastic way to experience true, unadulterated sports car motoring because it relies on light weight and small dimensions to give you a good time rather than brute force and wallowing about. Granted, these cars are well built to stand the test of time. So call us ASAP if you want it.
If you want a Sixties GTO but can’t quite stretch to the prices that pristine examples fetch, this black 1967 Pontiac LeMans Convertible GTO Tribute is a viable contender to consider.

With less than 23,000 miles on the clock, this baby also rocks an aftermarket exhaust, the famous His & Hers shifter, and some aftermarket upgrades too. It’s a cool car to cruise around in, but bury the throttle pedal and it can really take off, with the accompanying V8 rumble making everyone within earshot tingle in excitement.
Pontiac’s Star Chief was a full-size offering available between 1947 and 1966, across six generations. It represented the top trim level for the Chieftain model, and as such, sat at the upper echelons of Pontiac’s hierarchy. Today’s 1957 Pontiac Star Chief Custom Safary 2-Door Wagon Restomod is a bit different, though. It’s a restomod with some neat upgrades and makes for a fine classic daily driver. With over 120,000 miles on the clock, this car has been around quite a bit, but it’s not tired at all. Rather, this Riverside-based Pontiac is ready for even more action if you please. It’s got a 347ci V8 with FiTech Go Tri-Power electronic fuel injection, an aftermarket audio system and even air conditioning!
This 1968 Chevrolet Camaro Restomod is a first generation Camaro like no other. With its sleek red suit and fine black interior, this machine packs a 455-horsepower Big Block under the hood!

All that, plus a host of restoration and upgrades can be yours with just under 5,400 miles on the clock. If you’re tempted, this one of a kind machine is available in Coral Springs, Florida. If you’re far away, it’s definitely worth a drive to check out this baby!
