Nice car but an ill-informed, verbose and ultimately rather soporific blurb to go with it! Still, at a shade under nine hundred pounds it's got to be worth having as long as the buyer has a drill, a "Dalek", some oxy gear and four Schrader valves standing by for when the inevitable happens to its underused displacers..



So here's one that represents far better use of someone's spare cash, even though it's not so painfully original as the mirage example claims to be:

Looking closely at the bell ends of its front bottles, someone has already either fitted reconditioned ones or drilled and refilled the gas themselves, either way, this example of BL's unloved successor to the ADO16 is the better of the two by a long way, IMHO.

Couldn't have described it better myself.

The biscuit tin, so called because they could pop their windscreens when hoisted onto a ship instead of being driven on. I prefer the biscuit tin description because the metal that they were made from is probably inferior to biscuit tins. In one of the weekly classic car publications, some journalist is implying that BL was right and the buying public wrong. Apparently we didn't give The Aggro enough respect. The rotbox that was our car would never win respect. What a heap of shite it was.

Well given that my style of clothing is best described here, on these pages, as dodgy, the MG set would have a field day.
You might like this anecdote. Seen on an MGB. You can't buy happiness, but you can buy an MGB V8.

GHT - The perfect MGB for your other half - I doubt that you could find better for this money / quality of the restoration that it has had

No brainer in my book - purchase something like this / use it / maintain it well and you will always have your money + back out of it

Chris, that is a spectacular car, and I'm not sure if it's the same Classic Car dealer, but it was someone of the same name, in Norwich, that I bought the YB from. The missus and I will have to have a chat about this car. Thanks for the heads up.

I'm afraid we left it too late, it was snapped up immediately. People though, I tell you, on the car and classic site there's moaners who can't accept that it's sold. Going off at the vendor. It's sold people, get over it.

[Grumpy Northener]

GHT - Hard luck - but I am not surprised that it sold that quickly - it's a stunning car and in my book sold for £3k under it's real value
