Once again, Rover misses the mark on the spirt of MG's, Midgets, and the
likes. One ought to be able to purchase 3 Midgets for that kind of
cash. Maybe 2, but that means they've stuck too much weight on it.
A Midget is minimal! Basic. *** Affordable ***. Heck, you can just about
buy 2 almost new Miata's for that much. Or 4 GEO's. Certainly 3 Honda
beats, if they were availale. Who are they competing with? Jaguar?
