The MG Y-type was an important stepping stone in MGs history, as it bridged the gap between pre- and post-war, essentially being an update of the pre-war VA. Consequently, the Y-type had plenty of pre-war character, even if it it lacked the genuine performance one associated with the MG saloon line of this era. But the Y-type proved to be a suitable counterpart to the ever-popular T-type roadsters, which also had their roots firmly planted in the pre-war era. It was powered by a single-carburettor version of the MG XPAG engine was used in the TC (rated at 46bhp at 4800rpm) and was shared with its open-toppped cousins. And that, of course, opened up plenty of tuning opportunities. The Y-type did sport a new independent front suspension set-up, with rack-and-pinion steering and bolt-on disc wheels - so it drove more sharply than its modest power implied It features a 1, 250 cc gasoline engine with 46 hp. This version boasts some unique features that make it more exclusive than some of its direct competitors of the time, such as an all-leather interior, wooden dashboard, and distinctive octagonal gauges. It also features a sunroof, turn signals, a spare tire in its own compartment, both external and under the trunk, an opening front window, a foot-operated low- and high-speed lever, built-in jacks with lever operation on the engines oil pump, a supplementary fog light, and a pedal system that was advanced for the time, providing greater comfort and safety for the user Our MG will need some TLC to make perfect, drives beautiful with beautiful red leather interior, call for more info
