We know when the next edition of Retromobile, le cru, 2024 will take place. The official poster has also been shared.
After the great success of the previous version, it’s back for a ride for Rétromobile. The next edition will be held from January 31 to February 4, 2024. Because it is expected by many fans, the official poster that we present to you today has, as is always the case, benefited from a special care. This year, it is China… uh… the United Kingdom which is in the spotlight with the MG brand.
God save MG
Let’s say that the error is allowed insofar as the manufacturer passed under the bosom of the Middle Empire a few years ago… This event will be an opportunity for MG to remember where it comes from. And the organizers of Rétromobile agree with this since they have chosen green as the main color so British as well as a model on which appears two flags, one of which we see a little more, the famous Union Jack.
As for the model in question, it is an EX 181 model equipped with a 290 hp MGA 1.5 engine which, in 1957, won a speed record on the Bonneville salt lake by reaching the tidy speed of 245.64 miles per hour (395.31 km/h). Record broken two years later with a new variant pushed to 300 hp which “crossed the symbolic bar of 250 mph by bringing the record to 410.5 km/h (254.91 mph)”, announces the release from Rétromobile. A vehicle now on display at the British Motors Museum, not far from Birmingham. MG should appreciate advertising, he who, since he reconquered the European continent, displays sales scores to rival many other brands.
