    MG / Austin Healy / US / Germany etc. I wrote my mother's MG off when I was 17. My brother wrote off the MGB she had before that.

    In the flesh some of the US cars are bigger than you would believe.

    Saw Healeys racing years ago, they struggled with the weight of that big iron block six pot up front, understeered like mad! 3.0 Capri did the same.

    I'd sooner have a TR6. But I'd bin that iffy Lucas fuel injection and bung Webers on.

    Love De Tomaso Panteras (the earlier ones like that one.) All lovely, nice Porkers as well! Had never heard of Interlagos - thought they were Renault Alpines - then found out I was half-right - built under licence by Willys Overland apparently. Every day's a school! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpine_A108
