David,
If you follow this argument then you can make a WWII Jeep to be derived from 
a British design!!

They (and the Jeep) developed far enough away to be divorced.  There is no 
doubt the Miata is a nice little car, there is no doubt it has a nice 
history but there is no doubt the Little British Car is not a Japanese 
vehicle.  G*dd*m it!! They don't even leak oil (usually).  :-)  How can it 
be a LBC??
