that LBC people tend towards the freindlier side, however.<<<
Yep, I can relate, just turned 40.

The
cars I want now are the ones that I wanted then. How can the younger
generation develop a passion for LBC's if they never see them? You see, it
is almost a public service to drive your cars! If you don't, this
generation will grow up wanting Cor**ttes and Po**ches. It's up to us! >>
I took my MGA out last Saturday and people in general were waving and
making comments like "nice car". I think this speaks for most LBC's, todays
kids (from my experience) seem to really like these old cars. This is part
of British Car Week (May 12 to 18) is all about, getting them out on the
roads and showing them to the people who do not normally see them.
