The original MG 1100 saloon car gained the option of the 1275cc engine in 1967, prior to the MkII versions appearing in 1968. The MG cars 1100 engine gave 55bhp with twin SUs and the optional 1275 engine had a single SU with 59bhp. The 1100 engine continued for a short time before the MG 1300 saloon took over, initially with 65bhp, then later 70bhp with a very sporty (for the day) MG 1300 MkII.

Over 3 million MG 1100 & 1300 saloon car variants were produced between 1962 and 1973 with the MG versions proving to be amongst the most popular.
