I would like to thank all of those who welcomed me to this list, I am sure I
will gain alot of knowledge here about all things MG.
As I search for my MGB of choice, how concerned should I be about the car's
mileage? Note, I haven't considered anything with over 80k miles, and when I
buy one, I'm guessing I'll put on between 2-3k miles annum. I sort of get the
feeling that this is a non-issue in several respects. Is this true? I've seen
40-50k mile examples that were dogs, yet have heard of 80k mile examples that
are nearly pristine.
I guess I'm trying to find a logic here-mind you, this will be my first
British car-I know I have much to learn, I suppose I'm just seeking some
reassurement. If you've any to offer, I will gladly accept.
Thanks,
Tom
PS. What watch to wear whilst driving an MG? Well, I have only one, a lovely
Wittnauer-it is very classy, very elegant without being gaudy or making me
feel like it's too good for my wrist. If I had a Patek, I'd be more at home
in an Aston DB-4 perhaps, but that just isn't me....
