Following the vogue for small capacity six-cylinder sports cars of the early 1930s, MG produced the N-Type Magnette from 1934 to 1936. A development of the K & L-Types but replacing the simple ladder frame of the earlier cars with a tapering chassis, the model was to be the last of their 'Light Sixes'.

Thanks to the accompanying continuation buff logbook with chassis 0638, we are aware of the history right back to 1957 when it was sold by Rays Motors of 123 Sidwell Street, Exeter to a Mr Lush of Exeter. The car subsequently stayed with Mr Lush until 1958 and the car went through 2 more owners until the vendor acquired the car in 1968. He had the car on the road for a number of years before choosing to have the car restored and it went to marque specialist, Chisbon Restorations, to be restored over a 12 year period. When the vendor's gleaming car returned he used it for approximately 200 miles before laying it up around 3 years ago in dry storage at his home due to ill health. Unfortunately, it appears that he may never return behind the wheel again so he has decided with his family it is now time to let the car find a new home.

On inspection, we were pleased to find a very presentable example of this rare car that has had an extensive 'body off' restoration. The car is presented in fresh looking Tartan over Crimson Red paintwork with a restored interior. The car is now in need of some mechanical recommissioning due to the long period of lay up but the car was able to drive out of the garage to its position at the end of the street for photography albeit with slightly binding brakes. Now offered for sale, this car presents an opportunity for an enthusiast to simply recommission the car for the road and enjoy a beautifully restored example of this rare MG.
