When I first found this list, about two years ago, what attracted me so much 
was the level of enthusiasm about these cars.  I had not owned a British car 
since the mid '70s, but I always liked them.  Since I was planning on 
"someday" getting another sports car for rallying, I thought I'd lurk a while.
In less than a year I bought my Midget (from a lister).  I really didn't want 
to buy one so fast, but I couldn't resist.
The simple stories about weekend drives, and about success (and failure) in a 
repair job, and the obvious pride in a job well done, are what makes this 
list a source of motivation for many of us.  If it were a technical forum 
only, it would be no better than a Bentley manual.
Enjoy the rhetoric!
