Great cars but Spanners and voltmeter required....Ok , Jaguar V8 Saloon , early 2000’s![]()
Rumour has it that when designer Issigonis was presented with the first Minor prototype /mockup he got the builders to saw it down the middle and move the two sides apart to widen the track until he was satisfied of the proportions. It's Austin A30 contemporary had a much narrower track----pre-dates the BL badging of models of course which were essentially the same model badged Austin , Morris, MG or Riley. MG being the BL equivalent of Mercedes AMG badging in its day!Or here’s another oldie that seems cheap, often around £5k, but will get more rare and prices should surely rise. Also these cost peanuts to own and run, and easy to do your own work on if you like.

That's cheating its not 5kMy mateys Integrale owes him about £35,000.
That includes purchase cost in 2007, glass out respray 2 years ago and an engine/box rebuild last year.
I’d say it was a good investment.

(An extra four inches makes a big difference)
Not really. They've got electronics and ECU issues WAY beyond the pay grade of any voltmeter.I love these but my wife thinks they are too old fogey-ish.
Are all this era of Jags reliant on a voltmeter?
Nothing to do with Covid. Pfizer produces Viagra.Absolutely not.
Big pharma makes money out of ulcer meds not global vaccination with contracts effectively at cost.
There's big money in Big Pharma, but nowt to do with the current shenanigans. (With the exception of Modena, which got lucky)
For a safe solid 20 % p.a. go Microsoft, Philip Morris, or L'Oreal..... "Because you're worth it. (Cough)"
