History

The introduction of the coupe must be regarded as a sign of the times when enthusiasts were demanding a great comfort at speed and added protection from the elements in the “Grand Touring” tradition. From late 1956 through the remainder of production a very pretty two seat coupe was available. This had wind-up windows, locking doors, and other interior trim refinements. The MGA coupe offered style, comfort, and weather protection, and cut above that of the roadster. It is generally agreed that far fewer coups than roadsters were built, perhaps ten to fifteen percent of the total production.
