        You can blame World War II for this one.  The US supplied a lot of 
        hardware and the UK standardized on it.  Otherwise, I guess they would 
        still be using Whitworth standards.

Here's a newbie question... If MGs are british cars, why are all the nuts 
bolts etc on these cars standard instead of metric?  Were they just being 
conciderate to us Americans?
