Launched at the 1953 London Motor Show, the Magnette ZA was styled by Gerald Palmer. A well-mannered sports saloon equipped with independent front suspension, rack-and-pinion steering and hydraulic drum brakes, the newcomer was powered by a 1.5-litre B-Series engine allied to four-speed manual transmission and was an accomplished sports saloon with peppy performance and good handling which accounted for 18,076 sales prior to the 1956 arrival of the ZB. The improved Magnette ZB range included a Varitone derivative complete with enlarged rear window and (typically) two-tone livery.
First registered on the 3rd of September of 1958, this Magnette ZB is finished in a two-tone Light Grey over a Dark Grey with a Red leather interior with wood trim and complementing Red carpeting. A colourway that really works well, records suggest the ZB was previously Black until c.1996. Displaying 84,240 credible miles recorded, the tidy engine bay and boot area, with the spare wheel and carpet and card panelling, all present well. No stranger to the odd trinket, there is a badge bar at the front and in 2019 the ZB won Best Car in Show at The Doughnut Run 2019 (the trophy and rosette were kept by the previous owner). Described by the vendor as having 'Excellent' paintwork, bodywork and engine , it is offered with a history file and extensive servicing details from 2008 onwards. Additionally, there is a collection of sundry parts and the current V5C Registration Document.
