MG Quiz

Ok, a simple one, I hope...

Name the odd one out below:
MG Magnette, MG Midget, MG TC, MG TF

I'm going to say the TC. Its the only one that hasn't been reused. The 1950's Magnette had been previously applied to earlier models in the 30's. The Midget was reused from earlier models including the TC Midget. The TF was the last of the original T line-up replaced by the MGA. The TC has not been reused..

Ah - can of worms !!

Magnette - 4 door Saloon others “sports” cars

Magnette - original car then derivatives from same

TC derived from TA - TB and the TF from F
Midget was derivative from Austin Healy Sprite

TF is only rear mid - engine rear wheel drive - others front engine

I'll let the rest add some more :yesnod:

:omg: you beat me to it Ted I was going to say the Magnette as it's the only name of the four to have been used for MG Saloons.

However as you correctly point out there are several 'correct' answers which never ceases to amaze me. Almost ever other MG question could have at least a couple of perfectly good acceptable answers.

Ah but I expect we - ie you and I took Magnette to be the MG Magnette not the "K or N type" Magnette.

BRIAN where are you :coat:

Ok, I messed up with an ambiguous question! But in my head, I had TC as the one name not re-used in any shape or form. I also forgot to add the MG SIX which was first used in 1928.

So well done TSleight!

Paul - not only do we have to contend with Brian and his "specifics" but now we need to be mindreaders too!!?? :bang:

Is Magnus Magnusson a member here (faint chiming of bells and harp music) :yesnod:

Bugger! Stuck in hotel on iPhone. Can someone jump in with a question please? I can't add piccies from my iphone...

No - in a huff :bust:

Scrap quote above! I can manage a quickie...

What and when was the first "badge engineered" MG?

The MG 14/28 Super Sports was the first car produced by the MG Car company and launched in 1924

The badge on the front of the car still read "Morris Oxford", MG badges were not to appear until 1928

How sad can I get - I've given up reading a book for this :nonod:
