I never cared for the wedge shape of the TR7 myself, but just
look at the new cars. Most of them have the wedge shape.
Triumph was way ahead of it's time! As for the MGB, it's not
that it has bad styling, it just doesn't have enough styling. It
looks a little boxy compared to the MGA. Why did MG give
up on the MGA styling? Was it too costly to manufacture
those curves?
My favorite styling: MGA, XKE, Austin Healey 3000, T series.
(When it comes to running boards, MG did it best!)
Just MHO.
