When I was 16 I saw a pair of MGBs for sale in the local trader for $1000 (it was in Florida), but they didn't quite look right, having a bump in the bonnet... A trip up to the book store enlightened me to the MGC, at the time a rough one was worth $6,000. By the time I got back home and phoned the guy they had gone. Rats!!! I have since made it my mission to become a proper car geek so that I don't miss out on stuff like that again!
