It's British ... it's bound to have an oil leak and electrical fire problems. ;o)

Yeah. In addition to the gas bill, we'd have to rip out all the Lucas Electronics junk and refit it with Texas Instruments...

Not to mention that peculiarly British accessory known as the "random nut ejector." Every British sports car I owned in the 60s and 70s had one. You would come out every morning and there, lying on the car floor, would be a nut. Never obvious where it came from, and it had no apparent effect on the integirty of the car until the day when the whole thing simply collapsed in a great heap.

Not to mention the deck leaks when it rains and the heaters never work in cold weather.
