Quite well known in MGA circles. Repatriated in the 1980s, it had a body-off restoration and then ten years of rallying. In 2010 it had a second body restoration and was repainted black with burgundy trim, bucket seats and a louvred bonnet.
In 2014 it came to Oselli for the Oselli 1950cc stage two high torque engine with a five speed gearbox, a performance exhaust, new carburettors, cooling upgrades and an alternator with negative earth charging. A well presented and superb driving car.

| When | Where, and what happened |
|---|---|
| 1960s | In 1962 David Oldham and Dudley Gliddon, both apprentices at BMC, began modifying and gas flowing cylinder heads in their spare time. Oxford Engine Services was established as MG Rover/BMC specialists. |
| 1970s | Expanded to Ford and Vauxhall. The name ‘Oselli’, a derivative of Oxford Engine Services with an Italian ring to it, became synonymous with motor sport. |
| Before Oxford | A series of moves: from Wheatley to Baynards Green, where the Oscar Formula Ford car was built, then to Eynsham. |
| 1980s | OxfordMoved into large purpose built premises, and helped develop and engineer Aston Martin engines. |
| 1990s | In 1993 David Oldham retired and sold the business to Barry Coombes. In early 1994 David Eales, a senior manager at Aston Martin, joined as Managing Director, and later took full control. Classic and sports car sales added. |
| 2000s | WitneyMoved to Bridge Garage, just west of Oxford. |
| 2010s | Great HorwoodMoved to our current premises. |
| 2020s | Great HorwoodIts 60th year in business: 2022. |
Oselli became leaders in developing racing engines, with many successes in the Mini 7 and Mini Miglia series. Under David Eales, classic car servicing, sales and restoration followed, and the Motorsport Division.
In the press: an interview with David Eales, our MG and Aston Martin specialist (on the live site), and a Classic Cars Magazine feature on a major Oselli MGA restoration (on the live site). Both are on oselli.com.
“The old girl is still going strong… Castle Combe last Wednesday when it was a million degrees, performed faultlessly. In full ‘race trim’ and I think looking epic!”
Sebring MGA owner, at Castle Combe in an email to Claire
A night run
“Had a night run with the car last evening and oh my god I can read the gauges and see the road. What a difference! You and your team did a great job.”
Caledonian RallyThe engine’s first event
“I had the engine out on its first event last weekend. Caledonian rally one day in Kielder forests, second day in the Scottish borders. Only 3 1300 entered so we were amalgamated with 1600. We got a strong result, 3rd in class, 32nd overall from 75 starters, 1st 1300.”
The cars are in stock and ready to view. Tell us which one and when suits you, and we will arrange a time to see the car.
