Paul,
I appreciate the desire to go MG but to me the soul will not be
there. I would rather buy a Miata, prise off the badges and stick MG
ones on - Having suffered from Chinese made stuff I just wonder what
the car will be like. Stuff is actually getting worse - I am into my
4th Cuisinart percolator this year already and 50% of my
auto-electronics has gone manual. I will predict that Lucas will
look like the rock of Gibraltar when the Rhucas electric gear comes
out with the "MG".
