Ummm, no.Holy crap! Did you buy that wagon from my dad in about 74??
Does it have cinder blocks and a 2 X 12 for a back seat? No reverse but starts even when it's 15 below out?
There is just something about a British sports car! I've wanted one for most of my adult life, but credit myself with being smart enough to know better. Still, an MGB-GT...Here are some of the other MGs I've owned. I owned about 15 going back to a 1036 TA and restored about half of them.

Grew up with an MGA - bright red with the very rare hardtop. ('56? Maybe?) I'd love to have an old Gull wing MG (GT?), or an old Jag. British make the most beautiful cars in the world - but as one of my bosses once said "Give an Englishman 1,000 lbs of metal, and he'll think of 2,000 stupid things to do with it!
And now Jags don't have Leapers on the hood anymore? That's like a Mercedes without a tri-star - uh, wait...
That looks like the juices (OJ) bronco he was driving around L.A. with the police in hot pursuit.My first car was a 1993 full-size Bronco. I’ve had three F-150s (1998, 2005 and 2010) and a 1999 Mustang GT. A few years ago when I lived in Alaska, I drove a 1987 full-size Bronco. Loved that truck with the 351/C6 combo.

And perhaps my coolest vehicle that I still have

I've often wondered if they were a little nose-heavy, and therefore, less agile. I suspect that is basically what you're saying with your "They weren't as much fun to whip around town in..." comment. Also, I know the hood was different (bulged for clearance), but is the wheelbase the same as the standard GT? I can't remember if there is increased length from the cowl, forward.The darker blue MGC-GT I showed above was quite different. For those who aren't familiar with them, Cs have a 6 cylinder engine
For some odd reason, I have always loved these...I only owned one Jaguar

As I was scrolling down I saw your first sentence and thought... "cool.... Javelin, AMX, Marlin"... but no... station wagons....A few of my AMC products through the years. Not "cool" by most people's standards, but then again, I ain't most people...

I've owned a '68 Javelin, and a half-dozen Marlins (my favorite AMC model!). In fact, I still have a '66 Marlin project in the garage, next to my TJ. But I do have a thing for the long-roof cars...As I was scrolling down I saw your first sentence and thought... "cool.... Javelin, AMX, Marlin"... but no... station wagons....
