Well ... not a real car.
I'd get my MG running again, but that's not really for transportation.
I need to get my MGBGT back on the road too. And being a BGT, it actually
makes pretty decent transportation.
That's a matter of opinion ...
I grew up with MGBs. They were perhaps a little better than the Ford Escort
beloved by the boy racers of the next generation, but only a little better.
Still, at least they were better than the Triumph Spitfire or MG Midget.
In those days I drove a Triumph Vitesse convertible; lighter than an MGB,
with a two-litre straight 6 engine (the MGB GT had an 1800cc 4-banger).
A friend of mine had an MGC. Now *that* was a nice bit of machinery.
Too bad it didn't have nice electrics to go with it.
