1932 MG F Magna F2 <\/a>– sold for \u20ac83,440
\nthe charm of the present model, styled a “Foursome Coup\u00e9”, is enhanced by the enclosed bodywork allied to the car’s small volume. Just three examples of this rare version of the MG F – nicknamed the ‘Mini Black Train’ – have survived.
\nIt is in fine original condition, with patina that accentuates its elegant appearance, and is in splendid working order. The sunroof and apple-green interior, with its fold-down rear seats, are in perfect harmony with the aura of this handsome Coup\u00e9. The car has clocked up limited mileage since its beguilingly sonorous engine was restored, and retains its original number-plates, corresponding to its UK registration.
