Information

MG L2 Magna, year 1933. Matching numbers. Colour red with a red leather interior and red wire wheels. This fabulous and very rare MG L2 Magna is in superb (excellent+) condition. The automobile was extensively restored by E. Bruckschen in the years 1985/1986. This MG L2 Magna has been meticulously kept ever since, only very slight signs of use can be found. This car features the fantastic optional (Wilson patented) ENV pre-selective gearbox. The L2 Magna is one of the most special and sought after pre war MG road cars and a contemporary family member of the famous supercharged K3 racing model. The K3 and L2 Magna share the same basic components like the K series chassis, six cylinder engine with overhead camshaft and the ENV pre-selector gearbox. Only about 90 MG L2 cars have been built. Very rare and special; a sound investment and... Mille Miglia eligible!
