      Andrew, I hope you're ready to deal with the consequences of what you've just done... :D

        My uncle (who used to own 5 race-prepped MGs at one time before seeing the light) said this about his beloved MGs:

            So true, so true. His MG regularly has a layer of ice on the INSIDE of the windshield.

            Seriously Andy, you just declared open season on yourself...

                  The A is fucking awesome, style wise. Lucas does suck balls and you need an electrical engineering degree to fix it. I remember seeing a funny poster from back in the day, it has Lady Liberty holding a lamp and says "Let There Be Light" - what an oxymoron

                    Eh, the electronics aren't that horrible. I've only had one problem in the three years that I've owned the car, and it's 35 years old.

                    This ad is for a ZT anyway.

                    Completely different animal.

                    I wasn't trying to start a war here about whether MG or BMW was better, I mearly thought it was funny that it was comparing an MG to a BMW. Both cars have their ups and downs IMO.

                      This is only due to the fact that I got a bunch of water in my car from my feet. It all just puddles on my rubber floor mats and evaporates, condenses on my windshield and then freezes at night. No different then any other car that has a bunch of water in it.

                        huh? do you fill your shoes with water before you get into your car or something? I mean, I've lived in the PNW all my life, and I've never tracked in enough water for it to condense on my window. :crazy:

                          To be honest, I don't like making fun of English cars.

                          It's like beating up spastic kids...
