Depends what you want.
Personally I love the looks of the Spitfire.
For track use there is a LOT more experience and parts for the Midget.
They are ( unfortunately ) on a par for rust - the Spitfire at the top of the rear wings and the whole bonnet :) and the midget for the sills. All of which cause their demise long before mechanical breakdown.
Spit is slightly bigger inside.
Performance of stock is about on a par.
Performance is determiend by the suspension and brakes design which for both dates back to the 50s !!!!
Now add the GT6 to the mix and I pick it.
288 GTO

My knowledge on these two cars is not great but from seeing them both in my opinion, i perfur the MG. Apparently the Spitfire was badly desighned espcially the straight six version which i think is two powerful for the chassis.
