I have recently found an old photo album that has some great pictures of cars that my Dad Pat Mullen owned when he was a student in London at the Polytechnic. I was wondering if these cars survived. We still have NA0895 but was wondering about the M type and 2 J2 he owned. He was in motorcycles at the time and would love to ID those.
UF 8475 was his first MG
MG 2807 J2
JJ6603 now resides in Vancouver, BC not far away from us
AEG 78 must have been a friends
I cannot get the last picture to rotate.

MG 2807 is J3540 and is still around.
If you go to home, then Register database, the browse the Register, you can see all the public information which we have on the cars.

Ross,
it seems, that MG2807 had two big LUCAS R160S headlamps.
One of them with the system of canting the lamp-reflector with a solenoid for dipping.
