All, A little off-topic, but has anyone here ever crashed an MG, or been t-boned? I've read in a million places about how the MGB is a really strong, and over-designed car,but that was 1962, and other than the collapsable steering column, I cant think of any other significant safety changes (bumpers and padded dash don't count in my book). I don't know how I started thinking about this morbid topic, but I was just curious what my survival chances were if I got t-boned or rear-ended or if I slamed head-on into something in the MG vs. other common cars. Any survival stories here? How about horror storries? Penny for your thoughts.
