Rent a MG TF








MG TF - 1954, the final chapter of a legend
The MG TF, launched in 1953, marked the latest evolution in the MG T-Series roadster line, which began in the 1930s. This emblematic model, although conceived as a transition to the revolutionary MG A, remains today a true icon of classic British roadsters.
A necessary evolution
Faced with the rise of its European and American competitors, MG (Morris Garages) had to modernize its best-seller, the MG TD. Rather than develop an entirely new model, the brand chose to refine and modernize the existing one by launching the MG TF.
Major changes included:
- More fluid, aerodynamic lines, with a more sloping hood,
- A redesigned grille, now lower and sloping towards the rear,
- Headlamps integrated into the front fenders, a first for the range,
- A more refined interior offering enhanced comfort.
Under the hood, the MG TF started out with an XPAG 1250 cm³ engine developing 57 hp, before being replaced in 1954 by the TF 1500 version, increased to 63 hp, offering improved performance and a top speed approaching 135 km/h.
Contrasting success, intact aura
Despite these improvements, the MG TF suffered from a slightly dated image when compared to more modern roadsters like the Triumph TR2. Production ended in 1955, after some 9,600 examples had been built, to make way for the MG A, whose design was far more revolutionary.
Nevertheless, the MG TF has retained a special place in the hearts of collectors. Its purely British aesthetic, driving pleasure and handcrafted heritage make it one of the most sought-after roadsters among lovers of elegant, authentic vintage cars today.
The 1954 MG TF, MG's last classic roadster, embodies an era when driving was a true experience, combining style, simplicity and unique sensations.
