A Great Little British Sports Car For Little Money — a great car in the summer with the top down sharp handling if a little tail happy when the road is wet. will keep up with modern day traffic but the fuel consumption is a little bit on the bad side for a small engine. the grin factor has got to be a 9 out of 10 and i think another 9 for looks maintenance is cheap as long as your willing to get your hands dirty and parts are easly obtained so keeping it on the raod shouldn't be a problem. the build quality is typical british so rust is always a problem so you need to keep on top of it all the time Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) Pros: fun with the top down great handling Cons: rust problems and low fuel consumption |

British Car At Its Best — Another of the many sports cars my dad owned in the eighties, light blue with black interior, cassette player, chrome wheels. The carburator caught on fire once, but my dad was able to put it out in time. He sold it because he needed to downsize Pros: Fun, good looking Cons: Typical British reliability issues |

Great Run Around Car, Not Very Comfortable On Long Trips By Stewart

Time To Let Someone Younger Than Myself Enjoy This Little Car By ddavi380
