I think you said it all.
BMC was one thing, BL was another.
My only new Brit car was a BL Spitfire, and it was the absolute worst
car I ever owned. After 3 years of replacing engines (3), trannys (5),
rear ends (9) I sold the heap with almost 30,000 miles on it. I when
back to an old BMC.
Me and Triumph will never get along. And I even owned a Herald for a
short time untill I took the engine out for my Spit.
Remember this one...."Hark the Herald axles swing"
