An ancient thread but I can'r help myself...
1st MGA, but it has to be the Mk1 1500 - purest strain and because I had one when it was 'just an oid sportscar'
2nd. Midget if it's a 948 Mk 1 (I had several later ones) for being the simplest cheapest fun on four wheels. Lent it to a friend when we worked in the London suburbs - brought it back from his commute saying it was the closest thing he could imagine to having a supercharged rollerskate strapped to his arse. Traffic was slower then...
3rd. MGB because I wanted one at age 17 and it took me  53 years to get one (you do the maths)
 

What's that black canvas thing behind the seats for?

There are times when you need 4 seats with the top down. I would love a Stag.

The only 4 seater drop tops that I've ever had much to do with

   



And f course The Stag no so much a driving much but working on customer's Stags.......believe it or not making them reliable!

The Jensen was lovely........the Caddy was....erm different!

I drove past a new house on an estate the other day & it’s footprint was less than that Cadillac & yes, if the kids insist on playing out with mum & dad the Jensen is top dog.
