Or my '54 TR2.
My first car was a ‘59 MGA 1600 Mk II
It didn’t always run, but when it did, it was a lot of fun.
Then I bought a ‘72 911 Targa and immediately forgot about
British cars and Lucas electronics for the remainder of
my life.
...I hear ya....! got out of the service with more money than I had sense and bought a brand-new 1965 MGB roadster..”Iris Blue” was she official color....of course, the electrics were courtesy of Lucas, the Prince of Darkness...had lots of electrical glitches right from the start...fun car; wish I still had it, though...but not for upstate New York winters!!!
I remember the 59 MGA, gorgeous car. I was a little too young to drive that year, but saw them around town.
TR’s were the sexiest Britts around in the late 60’s, early 70’s. The others where priced out of reach. I multiple MG’s and would have had a TR4 had I fit in it. I am 6.3... made for English guys around 5.11
