I test drove a de-smogged 76 B when my 71 Midget was down, I thought
the B handled like a shopping cart too,
But we are comparing apples and oranges. I give the MG Engineers a LOT of
credit for the concept, Implementation
and finnal products the produced ( " cept for some of the silly little
stuff ). Now what WE have to do is
" reverse" engineer, and figure out what it was each of our cars was
supposed to be "good" at, and some of the differences are subtle.
