Introduced in 1936, the MG SA was the marque's prestigious sporting saloon, combining elegant coachwork with refined six-cylinder performance and luxurious accommodation. This example retains its original 2,322cc engine, numbered QPHG3242, and displays 71,873 miles on the odometer, although this mileage has not been independently verified.

The coachwork has an excellent finish, complemented by outstanding chrome brightwork, wire wheels, a rear-mounted spare wheel, folding rear luggage rack and a desirable folding canvas sunroof. The engine bay is immaculately detailed, while the underside, chassis and suspension all reflect the high standard of restoration undertaken. A stainless-steel exhaust system has also been fitted. The luxurious cabin features beautifully finished inlaid wood veneer, leather seating and period instrumentation, all presenting to an exceptionally high standard. A particularly appealing aspect of this MG SA is its documented participation in the 1952 Daily Express National Motor Rally. Accompanying the vehicle are the original official rally programme together with period photographs showing the car competing in the event displaying entrant number 36. The programme lists entrant No. 36 in Class D.2 as an MG 2322cc, providing excellent documented provenance linking this car to one of Britain's best-known post-war motoring events, held between 12th and 15th November 1952.

This example retains its original 2,322cc engine, numbered QPHG3242, and displays 71,873 miles on the odometer, although this mileage has not been independently verified.

The car is understood to have undergone an extensive rebuild and restoration between 2010 and 2015 and is today presented in showroom condition throughout. The coachwork has an excellent finish, complemented by outstanding chrome brightwork, wire wheels, a rear-mounted spare wheel, folding rear luggage rack and a desirable folding canvas sunroof. The engine bay is immaculately detailed, while the underside, chassis and suspension all reflect the high standard of restoration undertaken. A stainless-steel exhaust system has also been fitted.

The luxurious cabin features beautifully finished inlaid wood veneer, leather seating and period instrumentation, all presenting to an exceptionally high standard.

A particularly appealing aspect of this MG SA is its documented participation in the 1952 Daily Express National Motor Rally. Accompanying the vehicle are the original official rally programme together with period photographs showing the car competing in the event displaying entrant number 36. The programme lists entrant No. 36 in Class D.2 as an MG 2322cc, providing excellent documented provenance linking this car to one of Britain's best-known post-war motoring events, held between 12th and 15th November 1952.

Combining documented provenance with exceptional cosmetic presentation, this MG SA represents a rare opportunity to acquire one of MG's flagship pre-war sporting saloons.

At the time of cataloguing the vehicle started and ran well.
