MG
The Classic Marque

Guy. See this.

Geoff Dodkins special. Not sure what it's worth. Maybe not much now.

But my uncle loves it. He can afford to keep it.

F*ck the gain or monetary loss. The pleasure is worth more.

Maybe that's what your Sprite is worth to you.

Only you know.

If the pleasure of seeing and owning it, still outstrips the money value, then Keep it. 🙂.

It's too frigiin' hot for a sensible post, so..

" crush it...take it to the afterlife"..

Interesting thought...
I've always said l want my Midget to be set on fire and pushed off Beachy Head...

How do others in this eclectic assembly intend to dispose of THEIR Sprdget, when the time comes?

Guy, just put the Austin Sprite for sale at a reasonable price and see if there is intrest.
If not keep it, if yes and the offer is good (enough) sell it

A friend of my has a frogeye and a Midget he had over more then 55 years.
Then bought a MG TC and now (his wife) wants to sell one: the frogeye, well restored late nineties early this century.

He had put it on old value ...

From that last post Guy, a message and questions.

Do you need the money?

Can you afford to keep it?

If the answer to both is yes, then, f*ck it! keep it!

Be a pharaoh. Crush it. Take it to the 'afterlife'. 😅.


Seriously though,

I'm not joking.

If you don't need the money, then don't care about selling it.

Even if all y...

"feeling a cold draft down the back of your neck"

It was more like standing infront of a very warm gate ... LOL!!
Suposingly thats where all the bad girls go to ;)

All joking aside, im very pleased to still be here.


The jag is massive in comparison to a spridget.
So is fuelconsumption and with nowadays prices its ridicilous!
last weekend we fueled up in Belgium: s...

Got it Dave. I didn't see the first part about all 4 wheels. Jud

Yes I heard that our afternoon meet up whilst on holiday had some lasting consequences a bit later when you got home, Arie. I didn't realise old age was a catching ailment! Must have been a bit of a shock though, feeling a cold draft down the back of your neck like that?

Yes, it's a bit of a luxury having 2 Sprites though both together are still smaller than your Jag. And use less fuel!...

"So now it seems like the master cylinder, rather than the servo after all."

Incidentally if your previous tests disconnecting first one pipe then the other have the same results as before i.e. one releases them but the other doesn't then it's not the master cylinder. If it were then disconnecting either servo pipe would release them.

I understand your luxery "problem" with 2 almost simulair cars..

Does your frog already has a 5 speed?
If not how about swopping it from the Austin?

Us meeting last summer was great again, it even made it in the 2025 Family photo album!
