egg Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Are MG Magnettes still a bit of a bargain? A ZB for £7k seems entirely reasonable in today's market. Lovely looking things, I almost see hints of Lancia in the styling. Personally more desirable to me than 60's super saloons like Jag Mk2 or P6.
