This MG Magnette is a very early, pre-quarterlight example registered in March 1954, sold as a non-runner requiring full restoration. In the vendor's words, “some original parts are loose but the car is believed to be mainly complete”.

When we sold this car in 2022 it was accompanied by a British Motor Heritage certified copy of a factory record showing that it was built from 2nd Feb to 1st March 1954, making it one of the first 250 examples. At that time it was the 8th oldest ZA known to the Club. Unfortunately this paperwork has subsequently been lost. There is no V5C but the vendor does have the original beige logbook (to follow).

Due to its early build date, this particular Magnette would be eligible to participate in the Mille Miglia, once restored.

The vendor also has a large collection of parts available by separate negotiation.
