My second reaction to this (I don't need to tell you my first) is that this
sort of stunt says nothing about the value of a given car to a given person
but volumes about the value of a buck to a given person. IMHO, the fellow
who dropped 35K on a V8 MGB has many more of those dollars than he knows
what to do with. My personal economy is much more in line with David's,
though I confess the most I've spent on an MG is $3000.00 (but I still won't
tell you how old I am).
