In the mid 1930s MG decided to enter the big sporting saloon car market. This model, which competed directly with Jaguar's new SS saloon, used a similar engine to Wolseley's 18-85, thus showing the increasing influence of Morris within the company. Styling was clean and dramatic with a long bonnet and sweeping front wings. The interior featured leather trimmed seating and wooden dash and door cappings, decorated with thin marquetry inlay.
