Did anyone else watch Sunrise this morning?

They had this article on MG/Rover. Apparently it's in receviership and this weekend the administrators are having a sale (forget what type it is, something like fire sale) where they are selling a number of the MG Nobles. Shocked I so want one of those cars. Supercar performance at a fraction of the cost. 0-100 in 3.5 seconds. Very Happy

The nobles are very quick the newer ones run a ford motor from the US that been rebuilt to there specs and turbo, they are mianly quick due to their low mass, ie similar to TVR and don't have huge amounts of power. Motor reviewed one a while back and loved them, they are actually kit cars but just sold finished. Surprisingly their suspension was well sorted and not only handled like a dream but rode bumps very well. Very Happy
Will still be pretty exy though they are like 200-250K so even with 50K off they would be well out of our league

LOL. True. Considering 95% of Toymodders see a beautiful car costing $15k, and say that they would love it, if they had the money. Smile
