The MGA Twin Cam had Dunlop hydraulic disc brakes on all four wheels.

Thanks for sharing would have been good to get their on Monday

Gotta say, i like the cyber GTS, and the Cyberster as wekl. But the GTS is well styled. The regular new MGs, meh, may as well be a Hyundai or a Chevy Bolt EUV, uninspiring.

i like all old British cars 👌👌🇬🇧🇬🇧🚗🚗

Nice car shame its a shame some people only appreciate how long they can go round a banger circuit.

MG was the original sporting “hot rod “…….

my MGB oil cooler was in front of radiator , looked like thats how it was from factory ?

I just shared on Facebook MG TF owners club

Very nice. Having my same red ‘61 mga1600 mk2 since 2003, I did much of same upgrades. 1-2-3 ignition, silicon leads, Irridium plugs, unleaded cyl head and tuned ports, alternator iso dynamo neg ground, silicon brake fluid, lifetime coolant, led lamps and ‘long’ diff pinion wheel to low rpm cruise. Me shorty at 178cm. So normal seating. Car summer used weekly.

Incredible cars !! I am in Pennsylvania and my MG engine is on a stand right now..I am working on my 1928 Morgan and am about to start a TH-cam channel.

I love the car but didn't I watch this exact video a couple days ago?...lol

Good show well filmed , George

Very nice Downton MGC GT, I remember Cosmic wheels, they were very well known back in the 60s & 70s, my brother had them on his Vauxhall Ventora.

When I used to go to the South Yorkshire MGOC meetings back in the 80s/90s, there was a chap who had a UM MGC that was this colour, though I don’t remember the registration after all this time, so it may or may not have been the same car.

Like their big farina counterparts... mg magnettes in both pre farina and farina saw service in the police force during the 1960s. Jersey, Oxford City, Wiltshire, to name a few. Very nice examples exhibited here.

Can't see what the car looks like with the bonnet and boot open

Brilliant interview.👍

Interesting MGCs - back in 2003 when I was living in UK I viewed an MGC GT in Bedforshire that had a triple SU spec engine with all the Downton mods. The MG had originally been Sandy Beige but had been repainted red in the past when I saw it. It had a period vinyl roof (a UM mod?) with a webasto and sat on wire wheels. The interior was red with white piping, it drove nicely and sounded glorious but was quite rusty unfortunately.

I can remember one of these in what I remember as "purple" in the University Motors showroom in Strood Kent. Might have been 2 tone purple and pink? I wonder what happened to that one? Showroom is long gone. The showroom floor was several feet above normal road level so you could see the cars on display easily as you went past. I think I might have had my first Volvo Amazon then. I note that this MGC has a J reg which I think would make it 1971 and not 1973 as mentioned?

❤Beautiful MG's

Lovely Spinal Tap moment, this one goes up to 3, an impressive car all the same, served my apprenticeship fixing and tuning these at Voss Motors. Ah those were the days.

has fred elliott considered putting meat storage, in the front of his mg? :) lol

Epic! Hare Krishna!

Looks like it has a 5 speed gearbox. Not a "A" series but similar to the "B"series.engine.

very good

Excellent video chaps, picked up a fair bit of info here, wonder where that last one is, tucked away somewhere I reckon. Those door mirrors look more substantial than the Rover 100 (Metro) ones. The head gasket issue was the very last set back Rover needed and would never recover from. Good to see a few extras, fuel light, boot release etc. Now let's find that last one! 👍🇬🇧

Great video, this was a great event, my son and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Great video, something else I need to add to the list along with MGs on track, well done Tim.

looks like fun cheers from NZ

So much better than the last BMAGM!

Thank you for sharing! Lovely car. I miss my orange one.

During the Plandemic I found a 1933 MG engine, gearbox and differential. I started out purchasing an MG transmission from a guy who did not know if it worked and it would not shift. That is when I found the engine etc. I am trying to figure out what to build around it.

Such a shame that MG Rover folded. As Peter say's, there was a lot of projects in the pipeline but it was all a little too late.

BHP: The Riley Farinas were badged 4/68 and later 4/72, being number of cylinders and bhp. As both Rileys and Magnettes had twin carbs, their outbuts should have been the same.

The sad irony is thst if it wasn't for the Chinese , ndian's and Germans our best British car brands would have disappeared long ago..the day's of the British empire are gone and we had better face that reality and get back in the European union fast!!!.❤️🇬🇧🇺🇦

junk total badge engineered model = these 4 door box cars are such a poor exanple = of a great car garage MG .

feck! i didnt know that was on!

Very very nicely preserved/restored car and excellent video. I knew of the Twin Cam but not very much about it and had never seen that very pretty engine before. I would like to know more about the design and development of that head. It must have been quite a task to develop this race version of the MGA and I see the old MG philosophy of "let's use what we've got" very much in play. I had no idea that it carried over it's predecessor's chassis which must have made it heavy and flexible for a racer. I used to have an MGF Trophy 160 which I modded to 190 along with many other hidden mods including Torsen diff and engine access was similarly difficult through removable panels above and on both sides which was that models demise really as it made maintenance time consuming and expensive so was neglected by "casual" owners and contributed to the engine's much discussed cooling problems, all fixable by competent home enthusiasts.

Cool car.

Nice overview and fun to see my MG6 BTCC in the background!! 🏁👍🏻

tres jolie

I don’t mean to be the anorak in the room and it’s a great car and vid BUT theirs so much disinformation going around!

Remember seeing this car at rover's liquidation auction in 2006 at longbridge, just odd that mg kept it low key given the record it got and Time and money invested.

A superb historic icon.

It is really too bad they didn't/couldn't allocate the resources to further develop this engine. It might have changed the whole trajectory of the company. It reminds me of the Chevy Corvair in that it could have had an amazing future had they continued to improve it.

If you own a Twin Cam in the US, you should already know by now Auto Vintagery (James Alcorn) in San Diego, California and Moss Motors in Santa Barbara, California (Stu).

A pretty car, but the least reliable version of the B series engine plus the other issues: overweight, poor suspension and brakes.

Could do without that irritating, hokey music!...I would rather hear that raspy exhaust note!...These cars are sleek and very nice, but were underpowered, compared to a TR3, or a Healey. And I have never warmed up to the MGB look...just rather boxy, and still were underpowered!
