In the current issue of R&T, Peter Egan thinks back on the 50th anniversary of the MGB and had this about one of the three he has owned:

The 1970 roadster was beige in color, and I sold it to a friend who drove it from California back to Wisconsin and then used it to commute to work for two years. He later sold it to a Madison police detective who told me it was a wonderful car and he’d never had a moment of trouble with it.

I took this news as well as can be expected. It was like hearing your ex-girlfriend is more beautiful than ever and just won the Boston Marathon.

That my friends, is writing.
