I find I think the same way myself.
Maybe I am getting old?
But, yes, I think it would be fun to own one of those old MGs. They had what...65 horsepower or something like that? And the gearing was so low you could climb trees....
But they look neat, and I just think they would be a load of fun to tool around in. (Just be home before dark, LOL)
“But, yes, I think it would be fun to own one of those old MGs.” Let me clarify: A real one. Not a VW MG wannabe.
