[Mgs] MG1100 questions

[David Ambrose]

Does it have hydrolastic suspension? If it does, check carefully into 
parts availability, and whether you want to jump through all the hoops 
needed to charge the suspension. Conversion kits are available. That 
said, the hydrolastic suspension in my friend's Austin America was a 
real treat to drive.
