Every once and a while you come across an ad published some years ago that depicted an MG in the photo shoot. Well, here is one that Jeff Powell found and shared with us.

Ballantine’s Scotch circa 1982
Tanqueray Gin circa 1985>/font>

I thought that I would combine these ads as they are quite similar.

Both distillers decided that U.K. blended whiskey and distilled gin are favored by those who enjoy fine English sports cars.

The TD was auctioned off by William Doyle Galleries in NYC. “Just pick up a auction form wherever you buy Ballantine’s” and place your bid. For the TC you had to write or call to have the entry form mailed.

Who ended up with these fine MGs and where are they now?
