'C' type Midget
 The 'C' type or 'Montlhéry'
Midget was introduced in 1931, as a racingversion of the 'M'
type but owed more to EX127, the 'Magic Midget' built
for record breaking after the success of EX120.
Only 44 were built on thelower chassis whose design is said to have been influenced by examininga racing car built by the French firm Rally. A lot of development took placeand the 'F' type chassis is effectively a longer version of the 'C' type oneand even the ENV gearbox was a variant of the one used in that car.12" brakes were developed for the 'C' type, and in 1932 the 'F' type alsogained those in the 'F2' and 'F3' versions. The racing successes of the 'C'type no doubt influenced prospective buyers of the 'F' type Magna. |
