The EX-182 can be considered one of the most important carsin the history of MGA because they are the immediate pre-production MGA racing cars built specifically to run in the 1955 Le Mans race. This was intended to be the showcase and publicity for the new MGA model. These racecars were originally intended to run in the Production class at Le Mans. When the production date slipped a little they were re-registered in the Prototype class. which allowed latitude for some additional modifications.
