I have mentioned this car before on this list, well, it has been sold. Looks like eBay did the trick for them and the car is hitting the high seas... to Belgium (from Australia)! They told me the got

We "assembled" a lot of MGs here (at the Zetland, NSW, factory) but where do you think most of the cars on the road come from now? They are shipped over from the US. Those cars shown at the top of th

While I deplore vehicles not being driven I do feel that we should save some 'originals' so we have a preserved example of what was really original. So such an unusual truly original car should be pu

I agree. There's virtue in preserving some examples of an item. So many MGBs were made that it's not like not driving this one will somehow diminish the ranks of them on the road. Besides, once you s

Just to clear things up, re-reading my initial response and it did look a tad defensive. Really, it was more a "I need to get to work but I will shoot off a reply before I go" thing. I hope I didn't

Hear, hear. And I can tell you (even though it is one of the latest/last built being a 1980 model) it feels like stepping back in time to sit in this "as new" machine that even SMELLS like a new car
