British Motor Corporation does not build many cars like the MG N-type: a 2- and 4-seat open tourer / Foursome Coupé / 2-seat competition car with 1271 , built from 1934 to 1936 when streamlining and independent suspension were arriving together.
The background
The MG N-type (also known as the MG Magnette) is a sports car that was produced by MG from October 1934 to 1936. The car was developed from the K-Type and L-Type but had a new chassis that broke away in design from the simple ladder type used on the earlier cars of the 1930s being wider at the rear than the front and with the body fitted to outriggers off the main frame.
The engineering
Under the skin sits 1271 . The gearbox is a 4-speed manual. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.
Where it sits
Where it sits in British Motor Corporation's history is not in doubt: the MG L-type/MG K-type came before it; it was built at Abingdon-on-Thames, Berkshire, England. On a showroom list of its day it stood against the Bugatti Type 57, the Chevrolet Suburban, the Hispano-Suiza type J12 coupé-chauffeur. Its British Motor Corporation stablemates include the Austin 10 and the Austin 12.
The money
There is no federal ownership record for the MG N-type — it predates the complaint database or was never sold in the United States — so MotorJury publishes no running-cost figure for it. For a car of this age the price is set by the collector market and the condition of the individual example, not by a formula.
