So Jim, what are you doing with a Spridget?
I agree with you on this stuff. My Austin Ute and my wife's MGB both pee on
the driveway. I owned a Hardley once and thought it was a POS. I rode my
brother's Hardley and at 65mph it vibrated so bad you couldn't read the
speedo. Yet, I like these Brit cars. I have no idea why. Do you?

You just didn't notice the right people... By 1967 had my fill of leaky
Brit iron and Hardleys that fall apart just sitting there and bought my
first BMW. No chain, no leaks and 180,000 miles later have only been inside
it once and bought 2 more to sit with it in the stable.
Cheers!!
