Oops - be careful whatyou say about the 75-76s also.  :^)   Lot's of us own
'em.  Although I would be the first to admit these are perhaps the least
desirable of the Bs.  Even so, my "performance enhanced" '76 is better than
I am.

But regarding your statment:

Not true.  I owned a carmine red 1980 MGB for a short period.  This car was
definitely not a "Limited Edition".
