The MGA Mk II was the last of the MGA series; assembly started in April 1961 and ceased in June 1962 with a total production of 8,719 units in both roadster and fixed head coupe configuration. Visually, the Mk II was distinguishable from previous MGA models by various body detail changes. The vertical bars in the front grille assembly were recessed at the bottom, adding much depth to the grille, and a new taillight cluster, borrowed from the Mini, was fitted to comply with new lighting regulations. The most noteworthy change was the installation of BMC's 1,622-cc inline 4-cylinder engine. The 1962 MGA MK II represents one of the most desired and sought after MGA models, as it was one of the final of the A series run. This MGA has undergone recent paint work and looks sharp in contrasting crème with a red interior and true “knock –off” wire spoke wheels with front disc brakes. It has correct dash appointments including Jaeger instrument gauges, original top, and its wire-spare in the trunk.
