Comments from the seller
Offered for sale is a beautifully maintained 1954 MG TF 1250, finished in the rare and original Almond Green metallic paint (MG code GN37), known as MetalliChrome when new. This is an authentic, Australian-delivered example that arrived in Australia in 1955 — a true time capsule of British motoring heritage with a genuine local history.
Owned by the current owner for 20 years, this MG TF has received full servicing by the MGBHive throughout this period, ensuring it remains in excellent mechanical condition. It’s presented to a high standard and regularly presents well at classic car shows, yet it’s emphatically not a “trailer queen.” This is a classic built and maintained to be driven and enjoyed — perfect for those weekend runs, club cruises, and sunny-day adventures that classics are meant for.
The car will be sold with:
• Full Victorian registration
• Current Roadworthy Certificate (RWC)
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a genuine, driveable MG TF 1250 with rare original colour, documented service history, and 20 years of dedicated ownership. Ideal for the enthusiast who wants a show-quality classic that’s ready to hit the road, not just trailered to events.
A piece of 1950s British sports car history — rare, well-cared-for, and ready for its next proud owner to enjoy.
