What sort of person rates a Montego or Maestro of any variety (please don't ask me to accept the MG badge is anything more than a logo) as one of their favourite drves?
Someone that hasn't driven a lot or cars? Possibly.
My favourite? Well, not the Escort MkI 1300 HLS, Cavalier MkI Sports Hatch, my current Nexia or my old guv'nor's Mercedes 230...
I really liked my Pug 205 GL. Stick-in-a-bucket gearstick and bent panelwork but the 1400cc XY type engine propelled the thing incredibly for a cheap runaround. The handling was unbelievable for a car like that and the steering had fantastic feel - it made me wonder what on earth a 1.9 GTI must be like!
