Rapid development of the overhead cam sports and racing cars through the early 1930’s led to subsequent C ,D, J, P, Q, and R type Midgets, this being MG’s most exciting period. The name “Midget” was first used by MG in 1929 ascribed to the M Type, this being MG’s first baby sports car based on the then newly released Morris Minor. A true “sports car” in every sense of the word. A joy to drive, easy and inexpensive to buy and repair, these little machines represent the ultimate enthusiasts all rounder. Equally at home whether being used for racing, rallying, hillclimbing, sprinting, trialling, or auto-testing, these diminutive machines were and are truly competitive, and in talented hands always capable of some giant slaying results. One of the most versatile sports cars ever, owners were within days of its announcement, competing successfully with them in all branches of motor sport, and have continued doing so ever since. It has been said, and justifiably, that the Sprite and Midget as produced by the MG Car Company from 1958 until 1979, provided motoring enthusiasts with by far the most amount of enjoyment, for by far the least amount of money. Should that be the case and you’ve ever wondered what they are like, then this is for you. Presumably if you’re reading this you are already the owner of an MG, or at least a member of the MGCC, so are familiar with MG’s if not necessarily the Midget. Is your Midget a fire starter?
