MG TF 1250

This 1954 MG TF 1250 is a right-hand-drive, UK-supplied car with matching-numbers engine and gearbox. It is finished in red with a red leather interior, and the page lists 22,000 miles and 58 bhp.

Its claim to fame is its registration, NWX 818. Corgi chose this car as the basis for its die-cast MG TF, so the toy and the full-sized car share a plate. The boxed Corgi model goes with the car.

A restoration was completed in 2018, keeping original components where possible. The engine and gearbox were rebuilt by Brown and Gammons, and Collingburns retrimmed the interior. A new mohair hood, side screens and tonneau cover were fitted. The engine was removed again in 2025 to refurbish the engine bay. The file runs to 65 years and includes historic MOT certificates and the original green folding registration document.
