True Classic
I'm done. I just spent the last three days training a group of engineers, three from the US, and one from Germany and one from England. When they arrived, they got out of their car, and they made a bee line for my X, which was parked in the lot. They sat there circling it for a few minutes before they came in and the introductions commenced. It turns out three of the five owned one in the past. One even asked me if it was for sale. Now the British engineer was somewhere north of six feet. It must have been a tight fit for him. He reminisced about the 'blinking' headlight modification he had performed on his...apparently, the ladies liked it. After the X1/9, he acquired an MG. This is where I took the opportunity to rib him. "An MG" I said. "Didn't those come with a self lubricating chassis from the factory"? Slightly shocked, he smiled, telling me he had never heard that one before. He thought it was quite funny, and said he had to remember that one.
