The MGA exhibition is on at Abingdon Museum until Sunday 28th June.
This exhibition looks at the development of the design, the influence of speed-record breakers and experimental prototypes, and it shines a spotlight on Syd Enever, the ‘father’ of the MGA. Under Syd's direction the design office developed the cars following the MGA: the MGB and its variants - MGB Roadster, MGB GT, and MGB GT V8 - including racing models.
