Rick, it is primarily between MG and Tr****h because many people
(rightly or wrongly) attribute an amount of the blame for the demise of
MG on a budgetary and focus shift to the Tr****h at the time.
For the full stroy, you need to ask someone, like Ed, who was there when
it was all happening ;-)
Besides, in Australia it is Ford versus Holden - so it seems there is
always some room for good healthy competition in every country/class of car:-)
