Errr everyone who I know who owned an MG midget, TR6,7, spitfire all moaned about electrics, leaking water and oil, overheating. Even the newer MGF isn't all that great.
You have to remember these were built by British Leyland, need I say more?
If you want to get a small sports car I would say go for a mazda mx 5. Cheap, loads of spares and reasonably reliable and looks good.
Otherwise why waste money on a two seater car - get another bike.
