The best MG story came from my boss. Years ago, he was a
twenty-something, Air Force type. He found himself on the Long Island
Expressway around 2:00 am, tooling down the road on a summer's night.
The top was down, and he finished a cigarette. He flicked the butt
high into the slipstream above the windshield. In a few minutes, he
noticed an odd aroma. The smell got stronger with passing time. He
looked behind him, and he saw that the tonneau cover was on fire, with
the flames being fanned by the wind. He stopped in the middle of the
LIE, trying to figure out what to do. He had nothing with him, except
a few beers which he had drunk during the course of the evening. So,
he stood up, turned around and unzipped. He put the fire out...



Excellent.


The Chinese MGs wil never be the same.
