The Magic of MG
When Cecil Kimber began tuning and modifying Morris cars in the early ‘twenties, he little realised that these embryonic M.G. Cars would establish a name which, in the course of time, was to be¬come that of Britain’s best known sports-car. Mike Allison, a keen M.G. Enthu¬siast, very involved in the M.G. Car Club and at one time working at Abingdon, traces the history of M.G. Cars, with the use of around 400 photographs, from the early days of the Bullnose MG, 14/40, 18/80, 18/100, through the triple M cars (Midgets, Magna and Magnette models of the 1930’s), the pre war comfort models VA, SA and WA, and the immortal T series cars. Then he moves onto postwar production of the Y Types, ZA and ZB range, 1100, 1300 and finally the A, B, C model ranges. The achievements in competition do not go unrecorded, with a selection of illustrations showing cars in events, such as the pre war Mile Miglia, and record breaking cars such as EX181. Photographs of all the models and most of the specialist coach¬work show the interesting de¬velopment of a marque that has won the hearts of many a man.

MG Pictorial History
MG is renowned as one of the world’s most famous sports marques. This book relates its complete story, starting with the 1923 two-seater, and MG’s early triumph, the Midget, with its racing success. The Magnas and Magnettes followed, leading into the post-war TC Midget, and the successful MGA and the MGB. Though MG fell victim to corporate politics in the late 60s, it made a comeback with the MGF in the early 90s.

MG by McComb
Not only is this book the definitive work because Wilson McComb was on the inside at MG for a decade, it is doubly so because the author knew exactly how a complex story such as this should be researched and told. Osprey are proud to have employed the talents of a comparable expert.. From Cecil Kimber and the Bullnose MGs of the 1920s, to the thirties Midgets, the Magnettes, the TCs, the MGA, MGB, even the Metro and Maestro, every twist in the tale was followed by Wilson McComb, with an intimate knowledge not only of machinery but also of men, those who created the marque, some who abused it. There are not many more interesting automotive stories than that of the Octagon to be told, and MG will be one of the few British marques to make it into the 21st century.
