This M-Type was purchased in New Zealand in 1981 by Peter Briggs via an auction.

Can anyone throw some light on who may have imported it into New Zealand and when?

The car survives in Australia in 2025.

Odd that it's still in Australia as it has not been listed on the MG Prewar Register since the 2005 list in Peter Briggs' name. Must have gone into hiding!
The NZ Triple M Register could still hold info on this car.

Rob, It's on the website copy of the register. Can't imagine why it's gone missing anywhere else.

Cheers

Matt, I was looking at the printed 2005 Prewar MG Register list and Peter Briggs is listed as owning M3207 not M3440. So did he own two and sell them both?

Rob, 3207A is the engine number in 2M3440. It must have been a transcribing error some 20 years ago or more.

So glad you solved that one, Matt.
