Most cars were open two seaters, ut streamlined Airline coupé bodies were also made. The P-type was also available as a four-seater, car that suffered from a lack of power and poor rear ground clearance. Whereas J,KandL-typeMGs differentiated between versions with the use of numbers, ith 1 indicating a four-seater (i.e., 1) and 2 a two-seater (i.e., 2), his was not the case with the P-type (or its six-cylinder sister, heN-type Magnette), nd there is no clue to the type in the name.
