Well, there is another side to this that we are all guilty of.
How many times do we read a post like "I drove my MG from x to
y and only needed to z once!" or "didn't need anything".
Would anybody think that driving a Toyota from anywhere to just
about anywhere else without trouble would be a feat impressive
enough to warrant a post?
If our MGs are really that reliable, why do we post these things
with great joy?
