Mk1 1100 had twin carbs as did Riley, Wolseley &VP. This car is from the changeover from mk1 to mk 2 it has mk1 door cards, lower dash but mk 2 seats. Very few 4 door mk2’s were produced but they all ran twin carbs to be replaced by the A/M 1300gt from 1971 onwards.
Something is not right with this MG 1300. All MG 1100 & 1300 manuals had twin carburettors fitted from new. This has a single carburettor which BMC only fitted to their automatics in the MG, Wolseley, Vanden Plas Princess and Riley range of saloons. So at some stage this car has been converted to a single carb or it has an engine from an auto saloon.
1:03 You look as though you're *VERY CLOSE,* to knocking that trophy over and smashing it to pieces on the hard floor with how you're gesturing with your arm. Please can you be sure NOT to be "clever" or careless, whilst doing what it was that you were doing during this video please? It's unnecessarily unnerving, and is a sign of a person being generally accident prone. I'd prefer to buy the car with EVERYTHING safely in tact, and not hear that an irritating act of thoughtlessness led to the experience being unnecessarily marred. It lowers the tone of the overall buying experience.
Wonderful! And iIt's one of the very early 1300 models, just before the MG (in UK at least) went to 2-door and 70bhp power-unit.
Old English White - looks creamy/yellow in these photo/film conditions - what a superb car and very rare indeed
Lovely car -- becoming rare now due to the cost and difficulty of restoring them due to that complex front bulkhead and subframe.
The early mk1 mg 1300 4 door did indeed come with single carb at 58 bhp ,then they went to double carbs
looks just like one i owned in 1969
Lovely colour.
That's 25k pounds worth of car right there

Mint.
What colour is it? White or yellow? I can't tell.
I would have called it cream colour until he said it was old English white.
Lovely car. But I needed subtitles.
Switch them on. I tested them and they work. 5th button in from the bottom right of the screen.
@@ClotEastwood I know how to turn them on. I'm just saying the guy mumbles.

Did you buy it?
@@htimsid No.
At no time in the past have I ever purchased this car.
Shouldn't it be twin carburettors?
Mk1 came with single carb
