Design and History
Body Style: Final iteration of MG's famous T-Series line (preceding the MGA), bridging pre-war looks with modern styling.
Key Visuals: Sloping radiator grille, headlights faired into the front fenders, and an enclosed-style bonnet.
Production: Roughly 9,600 units of the TF were built overall between 1953 and 1955 before transitioning to the larger 1500cc engine.
Performance and Driving
Handling: Offers a pure, analog driving experience with responsive steering and a firm, low-slung ride.
Power: Built more for relaxed open-air cruising on scenic roads than top-tier velocity, though period aftermarket upgrades like Judson superchargers can boost output closer to 90 hp.
Users on the Facebook MG Group agree that the TF provides a wonderful, torquey feel on twisty roads despite its modest power figures.
Market Valuation
Average Price: Typically trades between $15,000 and $35,000 depending on restoration quality and originality.
Auction Extremes: According to data from the Hagerty MG TF Valuation tracking, top-tier or rare show examples have fetched north of $50,000, while project or driver-quality cars can sometimes be found for lower entry prices. |
