MG M-Type Midget

MG M-Type Midget This delightful M-Type Midget is one of over 250 cars once part of the Langer Auto Museum in Kansas City, run by curator-owner Rudy Langer.

Sadly, "due to age", as he states, Rudy is slowly selling off his collection. Down to 86 cars now, this M-Type - the first of the pre-war Triple-M (Midget, Magna, Magnette) models - is also looking for a new home.

Produced between 1929-1932, the little MG M-Type put out 20 bhp, and most importantly placed the MG marque firmly on the sports car market map with its charming looks and racing triumphs.

Rear shot of 1930 MG M-Type As a distinctive 1930 boat-tail model, this car has a fabric body with metal bonnet, rather than the full metal body that came along the following year.

The Midget is listed at a hefty $39,500, despite it being listed privately on the Langer Auto Museum website for only $25,000. The 'Best Offer' feature is enabled, though, so if you're interested you can use that to put in a bid.
