The Triple M series of MG’s all belong to a family of models that commenced with the 1929 MG Midget and continued through to the mid-thirties via a long string of four and six cylinder OHC engined cars that forged the marques identity.
S.W. Cottee is at the wheel of this 1934 MG P Type Midget (LJ 9885) seen here taking part in the MCC’s 1935 London-Lands End Trial. These big trials were extremely popular with the public, particularly the Lands End, which was always held over the Easter Bank Holiday weekend. Cottee was a regular competitor at this event in the 30s, always driving an MG. However, in 1935, he failed to win an award of any sort. (LAT Collection Image)
