When the list was published a few days ago, it was interesting to see
so many cars appeared on it without overdrive. This raises an
interesting situation for TR's sold down the years in North America.
It was usual for the majority sold there not to have overdrive, yet
for virtually all other markets a TR without an overdrive was almost
an exception to the rule.
Is this because dealers didn't know what it did?
Were content in the knowledge they'd easily sell a car so
'underspecified' without it? or
It might be seen as a sales dis-incentive?

This is something I've never understood and I believe much the same
goes for the MGB as well.
