Myself, I've always wanted to see a reasonably objective
comparison of the MGB and Spitfire. I am not that familiar
with MGs (at least compared to Triumphs!).
Back when I bought my car and I was considering the Triumph vs. MG
question, I went with the Spit since it had that so-cool bonnet,
plus MGs seemed to have more of a "fashion accessory" reputation
(at least in CA).
