STORY

The MG Magnette ZB, introduced in 1956, was a development of the ZA with more power, higher gearing and better performance. It was available in a two-tone Varitone version with a larger rear window. It improved the successful sports saloon formula and stayed a good-looking, capable family MG until the Farina-styled Magnette Mark III arrived in 1959.
