I've never heard that car described as "peppy" before. I don't have a lot of experience with that car but from what I've heard it's one of the biggest POS cars ever made.

As for MG, I used to know what it stood for! Now I forget!


edit:
It is not a kit car. I did replace the original 1800cc engine with a 74 Volvo engine for durability. I kept the original engine should I ever decide to sell the car. One of the reasons for moving to Arizona was because the heater isn't worth a darn.

MG stands for Morris Garage.

Re: What kind of car do you drive??

I used to drive The BATMOBILE (1991 Black Mazda Protegč)
Until we sold it and good thing too, cause it caught on fire.

Now I drive a 1995 Mazda 626, which is like my old car, except for the cool air intake, and the working seatbelts and the airbags.

Yeah, right up there along the lines of the Fiesta! What a joke those two are!!

If they raced each other, a bird would beat both of them, cause they wouldn't be able to move!! And along with the non-roominess of each of them, they aren't worth squat in my opinion!!

Re: What kind of car do you drive??

Has anyone seen the commrecial for some new little chevrolet car where they say it's only little on the outside and have these four giant guys get into it. If it's like a mini, then it is larger inside that you would expect, but compared to a sedan, no way.

Re: What kind of car do you drive??

I love my 95 Jeep Wrangler. Red... Softtop. It is wonderful!

It is a very fun vehicle and now that I removed the back seat, I have so much more room to cart robot stuff around!
