Jaguars are
still made and marketed as expensive, desirable cars. Everyone knows them
and sees the older models as valuable, desirable cars. Same for the Aston
Martin, which Bond still occasionally drives.
The popularity of Minis are due in part to the current marketing. I'll
wager many new owners never even considered an original Mini, or knew they
existed.
In the US at least, no Triumphs or MGs have been marketed in what, 25
years?
Then why are Austin Healeys so silly expensive?
