Spotted this beautiful MG 410 just now. |
Shankar, it has the wide body metal fenders and no locking hubs so doesn't look to be a 410.

My old narrow track soft top 410 carburretted TSJ 821 had locking hubs when I owned it. The fellows who bought it spoilt it beyond redemption.
But my later 410W carburretted - wide track hardtop TN07M8662 did not have them. The locking hubs were dispensed with from factory itself. Because of the headache of dismounting and then engaging and disengaging them etc.
But the Gypsy King MPFi that I bought from Noida had locking hubs as did the Green King MPFi which manoj now has. It was always possible to retro fit those hubs in the 410’s and Kings.
Further, the picture of the one I posted today indicates it is a 410 because of the flat bonnet and slat grille. And it was always possible to stick on those fender flares even on the old narrow track. Many people did that too in the 1990’s.
It may also be a rebuilt vehicle with another vehicles body and another chassis and engine.
A lonely gypsy
I have ‘Trail Rated’ my Green Soft top Gypsy. According to me, the Gypsy deserves this badge much more than the Jeep Compass and Meridian and all do.
This is the Third Gypsy of mine which I have trail rated, the other two being my White Hardtop in 2016 and my Green Hardtop in 2018.
One of the many trips with the King.
The Gypsy in the urban jungle.
Nothing like my old Gypsy for an early morning grocery run which turns into a pleasurable cruise around a few neighbourhoods. I went for a 2 km chukker and ended up doing 20 km because I just love driving my Gypsy so much.
Hi, I am Nithin Bharath :Cheering:
I own two Gypsy Kings. Here is one of my recently restored ones, and I’ve named her Tom ;)
List of upgrades:
• 215/75/15 MT Tyres
• 8j white offset rims
• Suzuki Samurai decals
• Suzuki Samurai side mirrors

Impressive setup! The attention to detail and tasteful choices of Samurai mirrors and the grill shine clap:
A few recent clicks.
Captured an unplanned moment with the 'boy'—the Jimny.
A discerning eye may notice three vehicles in the frame, the third being my 1960 Jawa, snugly tucked into the Gypsy. The bike experienced a breakdown and KA09BIKERGPR came to the rescue, driving down from Mysuru in my Gypsy. We loaded the bike into the Gypsy and headed back home.

Just how do you fit a bike in there ? ?
The space behind is just 4.5 ft long. Did you remove the front seat or .. ?

I've modified the front seat frame a bit.
