The MGA arose from the urgent need to replace the optically outdated MG TF models. Based on the technique and the modified frame of its predecessor, the new car was a break in the tradition which also showed in the nomenclature: the MGA was the start of a whole new era. The small sleek sports car became extremely popular, particularly outside its home country. About 90% of the production were sold overseas, which meant USA in most cases. The MGA was a true sports car: Even without crank windows and door openers he appealed with its sporty shape, pleasing performance and fair prices. Safety fast.
