No, you are not the *only*... but probably in the minority. IMO, the chrome
bumper B's have the more classic look. But, considering the times (take a look
at what was being made in the late 70's by other auto manufacturers), the
rubber bumper B's were not a bad compromise.
As mentioned, the extra ride height does seem to help us old fogeys get in &
out of their MG's a little easier.
Now, what model year had the ugly 'boxing gloves' attached to the bumpers? Does
anyone keep *those* monstrosities on their MG? ;>)
