The MG brand is and was primarily known for light and compact sports cars. However, MG could and wanted to do things differently, and in the second half of the 1930s it took on the competition from SS Cars and Bentley with the SA and WA models. The SA and even more so the WA were luxurious touring models that were just as comfortable as they were sporty. However, the cars were not cheap and so they remained rare. And they still are today. This report describes the history of the MG WA and shows an example in many photos, supplemented by rare sales brochures and historical photographs.
