Bill,
Thanks for this interesting post. If you look back at earlier MGs, they
have always been bang uptodate. The MGA must have been stunning in the
1950s, and the MGB was refreshingly modern in 1963. The MGF has taken
been influencd by these cars and, as such, is forward thinking.
What would you have thought of the MGA or the MGB when they came out? I
know at the time, some MG owners said that the new cars were pandering to
the softies and REAL sportscars shouldn't have all the luxuries of windup
windows and heaters. Sounds familiar?
Keep on arguing! :-)
Cheers,
Philip Raby
