In this book, MG Y Type owner and expert Neil Cairns provides the reader with a detailed history of the development of the MG Y as well as descriptions of the different models - the YA, the YT and the YB. Based on his own twenty-five years' experience of owning and driving an MG Y, the book is packed with advice, hints and tips for buying and owning this classic post-war MG saloon. Although based on a pre-war body design, the MG Y Type was more radical than it looked. It was the first MG with independent front suspension, the first MG with rack and pinion steering and the first with a left-hand drive option. This book covers the development of the XPAG engine as well as other mechanical information covering the gearbox, chassis and rear axle. There is also a chapter on restoration and how to deal with corrosion.
Neil Cairns currently holds the posts of the MG Car Club' s Y Register Technical Adviser, the MG Octagon Car Clubs Y Type Technical Adviser and answers queries from all over the world. He has published on-line MG Engines 1935-1991. The MG Octagon Car Clubs sells his Living With The XPAG, Living With The Y Type and the The MG Magnette Mk3 & Mk4 Cinderella.
