Details
Steel Blue/Mineral Blue body, Light Blue interior. “The ZA was replaced by the Magnette ZB in 1956. Power was increased to 64 hp by fitting 1½ inch carburettors, increasing the compression ratio from 7.5 to 8.3. The interior was improved by fitting a wood dashboard and there was also a Varitone model with larger rear window and optional two tone paintwork, on which our model is based. The extra power meant the top speed increased to 86 mph and the 0-60 mph time came down to 18.5 seconds.” Oxford "Globe" issue 116.
