Year1955
The MGA EX182 was a prototype developed by MG for the 1955 24 Hours of Le Mans and a direct precursor to the production MGA. Equipped with a 1.5-litre engine and a competition-specific aerodynamic body, it demonstrated outstanding endurance reliability and contributed to the development of one of the most popular British sports cars of the 1950s. Unfortunately, the 1955 24 Hours of Le Mans would not be remembered for MG's return to the race after a 20-year absence, but rather for the worst disaster in motorsport history, when 83 spectators and French driver Pierre Levegh lost their lives following a serious accident. The MG EX182 #41, driven by Ken Miles and John Lockett, completed 248 laps and finished 12th overall, making it the highest-placed MG in the event. SCX used this car as the model for its reference U10318S300.
