Thread Name: BS: British Cars!
Subject: RE: BS: British Cars!
Nearly owned two Britcars. When my parents were out buying an Olds in the late 60's there were two on the lot that the salesman offered to throw in to sweeten the deal. One was a Goliath [even then an orphan] and the other was a Bugeye Sprite. He got out of it by telling them that neither of them was very reliable, so they did not go for the sweetner. Just one of many dumb "favors" they did me. Shortly after that, I got an Alfa 2000 droptop. Would have been better off with either of the Brits. At least they ran sometimes.
