MG Quiz

And a great first post it is Martin. Can you name the three Musketeers to claim your place in the MG Quiz Hall of Fame?

The three Musketeers were 6 cylinder cars named Athos, Porthos and Aramis, whereas the Cream Crackers were 4 cylinder engines.

I had to go and check that out, though!

:broon: Perfect :broon:

Welcome to the forum Martin

Although this is a forum for soft-tops, MG have always had a saloon or two in their range, with the exception of the 1970s. However, an MG badged saloon was shown at a motor show in Barcelona in 1973 and is pictured in David Knowles' book.
Can anyone name the car on which it was based?

MG Victoria based on a Triumph Dolimite (but stretched a bit)

Right name, but not based on a Dolomite!

ADO 16

Yes, although technically the Austin Victoria as it was sold as, was based on the Austin Apache, itself a Michelotti restyle of the ADO16. www.austinapche.co.uk

Nice one Martin

I will leave it open for LuckyMarine to ask his question now.

Welcome to the forum Martin :woohoo: I can see questions about MGs and links becoming more diverse, now that we have a "expert" on board.

It is a great forum and we are pleased to have you here :thumbsup:

As Luckymarine is still thinking about his question :ohmy: I hope it's not that hard :lol: Here is one to keep you going

These should be wheely easy as they are all about the alloys fitted to F/TF's

1) Which car had these wheels as standard and what year did they first appear?




2) Name the models / versions and years that this wheel was fitted to as standard?




3) Which versions and years were fitted as standard with the 15" 8 spoke 'Minilite'.




4) Which F/TF version was the first to come with 16" wheels?

5) Give the name of the alloy wheels which have different widths for front and rear (Actual wheels are different sizes not just the tyres) and the vehicle it first appeared on?

1) MG TF 135 & 120 Steppy MY2005 models from 2005!

2) MGF VVC from 1995
