Love the color. I think I prefer MG's in non-standard colors... seems to add visual interest.

That is a very nice car. Now, you need to take it out on the road, as often as possible, and enjoy it.Have the shock absorbers been removed and replaced?This change makes a great difference in the ride.Roger N. Tanner, Professional Engineer, RetiredOxnard, CA USAroger.n.tanner@gmail.com
