And you could probably still sell them today. I get mad every time I
think
about BL.
You mean the Miata? Mazda *is* selling them today. Probably if
you adjust for inflation, at about the same price. With about 150HP
and a nice 5-speed and groovy suspension.
I have a friend who consistently refers to BL as
"British Phlegmsucking Leyland" over these
issues.
