MG MGA - Wonder if my car is there.

Somebody posted this on a web page.

Super pic.

I wonder why there is an iris blue car there because the others seem to be 1500s.
Maybe the picture was taken in 1959 during the 1500/1600 changeover?...................Mike

That coupe is the standout for me
Great picture

The coup needed a taller box. Note the drip catchers on the hood and trunk (bonnet and boot for our non-English speaking cousins).

I assume they are all for export - nice to see the Morris Minor in the background which weren't assembled at Abingdon were they? - so assume this is not at Abingdon then but at packing facility.

I believe some Travellers and vans were built at Abingdon.

So, not that one, I assume.

Interesting to compare with this picture:

Definitely taken on different days.

BTW, Mike, I wouldn't assume that the car in the picture is Iris Blue. Glacier Blue photographs notoriously ambiguously ("Ask the Man Who Owns One") and the color balance in this picture seems pretty warm.
