The first production MG. In the mid-1920s Cecil Kimber, manager of Morris Garages in Oxford, fitted sporting bodies to the Morris Oxford chassis, tuned and lowered them, and sold them as the MG 14/28 Super Sports. Early cars keep the rounded bullnose Morris radiator. Everything the marque became starts here.
