I naiively volunteered to get into the back seat of a friend's two-door car because I'm shorter than M and I'd be able to fit my shorter legs in much more easily.

I just think the MGB is cute and I used to be a passsenger in one a long time ago. The passenger seat was comfortable back then! :-)

I still like its looks and I have a Ken Danby serigraph of one, Under The Arch.
