PICS.A cute British 1930s Sport Car from Neo.
This is the 1933 MG F Magnum Salonette

A very British sports car even down to the querky roof lights. I also like the wire mesh stone guards on the headlights, and the "wire" wheels are a dream. Loads of delightful details as usual.

Love this MG...
Thank you Mike for doing these close ups. Though I knew it was more than likely going on the list, your photos placed in the definite column.

Definitely on my list. I knew someone who had an F1 Magna tourer, very rare car.

Very cute indeed Mike...the car I mean!. However...
not so sure about the modern amber rear indicators, or am I being picky?

I suppose it's the usual case of modelling the car as is is rather than as is should be.
Relieved you think it's the car that's cute.....phew!

Thanks for those pics Mike, Autotorque also make a very similar model in white metal but of course it's more expensive than the Neo

Images I have seen shows this model is accurate for registration TM 9731 …..
which was shown at Classic Remise, Duesseldorf, German. Even down to the modern indicators although if NEO modelled it as it was built in 1933 then as John indicates (no own intended) it would have semaphore indicators.
