After I sutured my jaw back up,  I realized there were very few MG's 
and none of A or B vintage. Anyone have an idea as to why that 
was?  Since there was a TR-4, it cannot be because of the age of the 
collection. Is this lack a political expression of a 
British-Portugese relationship????

So why?
