[SPEC S]

old man aint realise the unrestored state would fetch bout US$985.99 if he's lucky, normal thing with people and old cars, they would just have it rottening there and refuse to sell to someone who really wants to restore it, or call one crazy high price that the poor man like me can't afford

outsourced the design to the brits.

[MG Man]

nah
it really was a Japanese designer...forgot his name but he was known as Mr. Z
Not so much outsourced as influenced by the brits......
thing is, as bigchief said, when u look at the british cars around when the 240 was launched, it says a lot about the brit car industry.
The MGB had a dinky 90bhp engine that was 20 years old, based on 10 year old technology...the parent company, British Leyland was split between GM execs and Triumph execs....and both sides were clueless...MG was holding on to the B and Triumph had the TR7....in the mentime Datsun launched a cheap sportscar with a reliable 120bhp and proper suspension....did I mention RELIABLE?
