MG Magnette ZA (1953 to 1956)

The Magnette ZA was the first "modern" MG sports sedan, and was powered by the soon-to-be-ubiquitous BMC B-series engine. Most notably, this ZA was the first MG to use unit-body construction, as opposed to the traditional body-on-frame construction. It was succeeded by the Magnette ZB variant in 1956.
