Frequently Asked Questions about the MG TD
The MG TD was built from late 1949 until 1953 at the MG factory in Abingdon, England. The first cars were assembled in the closing months of 1949 and the model was announced in January 1950, which is why sources give either year for its introduction. It took over from the MG TC and was replaced in turn by the MG TF in 1953.
MG built 29,664 TDs in four years, according to the MG Owners' Club and Hagerty, about three times the output of the earlier TC. Most went overseas, chiefly to the United States. The TD outsold both the TC, at about 10,000 cars, and the later TF, at about 9,600.
The MG TD used a box-section chassis adapted from the MG Y-type sedan and shortened by five inches, with independent coil-spring front suspension and rack-and-pinion steering in place of the TC's solid front axle. It kept the TC's 1,250 cc XPAG four-cylinder engine, rated at 54 horsepower. The TD was also wider, carried bumpers as standard and could be ordered with left-hand drive, which the TC never offered.
No, the MG TD was not offered with wire wheels by the factory. It replaced the TC's 19-inch wire wheels with 15-inch pressed-steel disc wheels, solid on early cars and perforated on later ones. Wire wheels came back as an option on the TF that followed, so a set of wire wheels on a TD is a later addition.
The MG TD Mark II was a competition-oriented version built alongside the standard car and identified by a TD/C chassis number prefix. It had larger valves and carburetors, twin fuel pumps, a higher rear axle ratio and extra Andrex friction dampers. About 1,700 were made. Its engine specification carried over to the TF.
TD2 is an engine number prefix on the MG TD, and cars fitted with that engine have since become known as TD2 models. According to the MG Car Club T Register, engines numbered XPAG/TD2 arrived in July 1951, when a larger 8-inch clutch was introduced. The code is often confused with the Mark II, the separate competition model whose chassis numbers begin with TD/C, so a TD2 engine does not make a car a Mark II.
The MG TF replaced the TD in 1953. It was a restyled TD with a lower hood line, a raked grille and headlights faired into the fenders, and it used the engine tune of the TD Mark II. About 9,600 TFs were built before the MGA ended the T-series line in 1955.
A genuine MG TD has steel panels over an ash wood body frame, a front-mounted XPAG engine and a chassis number with a TD prefix. Not every car described as an MG TD came from Abingdon. Kit-car companies later sold fiberglass-bodied TD replicas, including versions built on a Volkswagen Beetle chassis with the Volkswagen engine at the rear.
The 20 MG TD listings on Classic Cars Arena right now are priced from $2,995 to $43,995, with a median asking price of $20,745. These are the prices sellers are asking today, not sale prices, and the figures change as cars are listed and sold.
