[Mgs] Best car I've driven

[WSpohn4 at aol.com]

You are really talking about two different classes of car though, a smaller  
nimble but lower powered sports car vs. a grand touring car.  Both have  their 
uses.
 
I don't really have out and out favourites.  For grand touring, it  would 
probably be a choice between the Jensen CV-8 with massive brute strength  and 
some degree of sophistication, in 60s British style, and the Lamborghini  Islero, 
which does pretty much the same job but with high revving refinement  rather 
than torque.  The Interceptor functions as the CV-8, but with a bit  more 
refinement and a bit less performance.
 
For sports, my first love will always be the MGA, with a mix of road  balance 
and good looks unmatched by later models.  
 
The MGC fits in between and would do double duty as a sports car or relaxed  
high speed touring car.
 
If you want to posit a third category, I have a soft spot for my old Jaguar  
Mk 9 in the large barge category.

Steve:  It's everything I wish my B was! AC, CD player, cruise control,
leather,  power windows,  hard top, 5 speed, 36 mpg,  all standard   equipment
and all work all the time! No electrical gremlins. Daily driver  for years now
and just as easy to work on as my Bs. Best of all it's BRG,  the 1st Special
Edition Miata ever manufactured.  But somehow it lacks  the character of my Bs
or A!
