The P Type MG Midget was launched in March 1934 as a replacement for the J2 and was claimed to have 100 new and improved features. It was powered by an all-new SOHC engine of 847cc, the standard output of which was 36bhp, which was sufficient to power the lightweight two-seater to 60mph in 32.3 seconds and on to a very creditable top speed of 76mph. The four-speed non-synchromesh gearbox had been strengthened and improved to cope with this new level of power and the brake drums increased in size from eight to 12 inches in diameter for the same reason. The front suspension included Hartford friction dampers while the rear featured transversally mounted hydraulic units, and the newcomer rode on centre-lock wire wheels. A total of 1973 MG PAs are said to have left the Abingdon plant before the model was supplanted by the incoming PB. The cost new was £222

This particular car presented in an attractive two-tone Green with Red interior, is a very original example and is listed on the MG Car Club's "Triple M Register". The history file is extensive and includes records of ownership and service/maintenance work carried out as far back as its first owner Mr L A Carrigher. The MG Car Club has confirmed that the vehicle correctly corresponds to the original factory records. Within the documentation there are the original Buff and Green logbooks along with the current V5C and also a plethora of service and repair invoices showing how well the vehicle has been maintained. Exported to Jersey in 1993, the PA was repatriated in 2015 by the current owner, who had its original "FM 8907" registration number reinstated. This lovely example is a true testament to the owners who have invested considerable time and money in restoration, servicing and repair in order to keep this classic in good working condition.
