The MG N-type Magnette is a sports car that was produced by MG from October 1934 to 1936. The car was developed from the K-Type and L-Type but had a new chassis that broke away in design from the simple ladder type used on the earlier cars of the 1930s being wider at the rear than the front and with the body fitted to outriggers off the main frame.
The N-Type six-cylinder engine's single overhead cam is driven by a unique vertical dynamo arrangement with bevel gears. The 1271-cc engine produces 56 bhp, good for a top speed of 80 mph. The four-speed gearbox is designed by Wolsley, and the 12 inch drum brakes are mechanically operated by cables.
The M.G. Magnette was introduced five years ago as a sporting saloon far better upholstered and finished than the average run of such cars, and attempting to retain something of the M.G. reputation while making use of a Wolseley body shell and B.M.C. two-carburetter 1½-litre power unit.
The N-Type Magnette was the last in a series of small six-cylinder overhead cam light cars featuring a 1,271cc engine producing 56 bhp manufactured by the MG azCar Company in the mid 1930's. The Magnettes provided 47% more power than their MG Midget counterparts.

The first Magnette announced at the 1932 Motor Show was to form an important part of MG history and was the basis for an out-and-out racing model. The K series were to embrace the most renowned MG model of all time the K3 racer, a car that was to bring worldwide fame to the Abingdon factory.
