A well-traveled MG

• 

Keith Bush writes: “This is the prototype MG VA Saloon from 1936 that was previously owned by Bas de Voogd from Holland. As Bas is having medical problems the car was converted to take a Morris Marina engine and automatic gearbox. I have now rebuilt the original engine that was supplied with the car in 1936. This vehicle is the press and advertising car and was also at the Olympia Motor Show in 1936. Last year we toured around southern England to run it in and sort out any problems. We were picked to parade the car in front of the Duke of Edinburgh at the Rotary MG-weekend. This year we have booked a weekend away in France organized by the French branch of the MG Car Club. Also we are thinking of doing the Berlin event as this years SVW-event is in München Gladbach, Germany.“
Editor: We’re glad to see it has it’s original registration plates back and wish you many happy miles in this exceptional MG! (B/W photo courtesy Bas de Voogd)
