I've always loved the looks of a MGA. Some of the best car styling ever produced, the MGA and the Austin Healey 3000 are my favorites. I never owned either. I did restore a MGB in the 80's which was a fun project. When I think of a sports car, it has to be British. And I am from the states where muscle cars ruled for years. But British sports cars look so much better. Sometimes it's not about being the fastest, it's about looking good and the British sports cars can't be beat in looks.

Drew Prichard really does believe that he knows more about everything than anybody else.

@sarahhearn-vonfoerster7401 3 года назад

Works...

@ronmatthews1738 3 года назад

So the shape of the MGA, which was introduced in 1955, managed to influence the shape of the Corvette, introduced in 1953 and the Jaguar XK120, introduced in 1948. Does nobody check this nonsense?

@sarahhearn-vonfoerster7401 3 года назад

It happens to be true, not nonsense. The reason I purchased my Jaguar in the 70s was because it was shaped like my '58 MGA 1600 twin cam, the most perfect car I ever owned...still in the family!

@sarahhearn-vonfoerster7401 3 года назад

Depends upon the model Corvette and Jaguar, not the year.

@ronmatthews1738 3 года назад

@@sarahhearn-vonfoerster7401 Drew Pritchard specifically cites the series 1 Corvette, introduced in 1953 and the Jaguar XK120, introduced in 1948. Are you the person that researched this nonsense for the programme? If not there is clearly a job waiting for you.

@TheGoldcolor 3 года назад

Agreed the Roundels yellow and the black rims with the white roof and the extra goodies you bought "Spot -ON" from the USA now I will get mine thanks you for the input and inspiration!

@david-lt9wj 3 года назад

Black wheels ? Yeuch ! Black roof and no silly circles would have been good.

@peterclarke1535 3 года назад

Nice MGA, orginal steering wheel, steel wheels, great interior, hope they didnt throw these away, at least you will be able to get rid of the improvements at a later date.

@stickymoan 5 месяцев назад

Not to mention the original seats which were "a bit saggy", apparently (well..just restore them). They probably sold all those bits on eBay to help fund their ill-conceived so-called 'improvements'.

@scottmeeker9971 2 года назад

I would have left it alone. Why screw it up ?

@Ridgerunner49 3 года назад

Growing up in the USA no muscle cars for me only English 58 MGA 67 MGB 67 4.2 L XKE Roadster

@lordbogus6709 Год назад

wow... a white roof, black wheels, some headlight bits make this car really something special

@johncrosley1 18 дней назад

A Union Jack on the roof would really set it off.

@DavidUKesb 3 года назад

What a mess putting those daft numbers on the side. Would have looked good if not for that. Sometimes, in fact often, less is more!

@bonkeydollocks1879 3 года назад

You know what would look really good on that? Some silver wheel spinner decals on the doors, look really cool. 🤭

@lib556 3 года назад

I don't know why I do it to myself. I was forced to sell my MGA over 20 yrs ago and miss it dearly. Yet, I still click on these vids and torture myself.

@russcooke5671 2 года назад

I am the same 40 years ago. I had two E Types. Two Elans. One Elan sprint. TR5. TR 6. Two Alfa spiders. MGC. Three crayford mk 2. Cortina convertibles And a few mmm 2 Jags. But I’ve moved on to a 15 year old diesel Peugeot Sob sob. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿👌👌👌

Personally I thought Drew ruined it, should have left it to Paul to do what he wanted to do with it.

@smeghead135 2 года назад

not the first MG he's ruined.

@geoffsaunders4960 Год назад

Completely ruined the car. 1st - chrome wire wheels are the way to go with this car - look at the prices and you can see that CWW add £4k to the price of all 50's and 60's sports cars. That is a fact, check it. Painted wires? Might as well stick to the standard steels. The supposed "racing" roundels are too small. Again look at cars that have them, And they again reduce the price of the car. The market price for a very good MGA convertible is 3£13k to £18k for an exceptional one. Notably, one with roundel and painted wires went for £11k earlier this year. This Drew character knows nothing.

I have seen a local (Australia) car modified to include electric windows, all round discs, aircon, power steering. I don't know how it all fitted but I noticed the car was low & small inside. Loved it but not an every day drive.

This MGA and the Green Jaguar MKlll were the best British upgrades on the show to my mind elegantly done is all it took or needed the MGA looked fabulous on the road after it,nice one and it shows enthusiasts that you don't need to know alot or spend alot to keep a classic going!..Smart TV show!..

Should have left it alone, customizing for profit is almost always a bad idea. You increase the niche of your buyer base while throwing away profits. Just let the buyer customize..

@andrewallen7793 2 года назад

Seriously? You can’t actually believe that an MGB engine makes an MGA more valuable…more driveable? Maybe, but not by much lol. Find a 1622 block and cam and go around 9:1 compression, upgraded pistons, maybe a tubular style manifold . and you’ll double the bhp. The MGB was the most mass produced sports cars of all time until the Miata finally dethroned the B about a year ago. You might as well tell Porsche owners to do a VW bug swap lol

@geoffsaunders4960 Год назад

Spot on. The MGA engine is very tuneable and easy to do. Why add the extra weight of the MGB lump?

@stickymoan 5 месяцев назад

The first 3 minutes of this video clip illustrates what a lovely car this was.... What they did to it and how it ended up in the final minute and a half...is a disgrace. Someone should have stopped them.

@jeffreynemitz8060 2 года назад

and Drew has them enamel the rims without disassembling the spokes from them??? what a hack job that he then demands big bucks for... mister perfectionist missed the point on that one. if you're going to pay to have a job done... have it done correctly.
