Amazing video

As said, I mean you have to watch this:

300 bhp and it ran faster than a bug veyron half a century ago. MG now and then, how's that for a story, eh?

Comparing to these, today's engineers seem to be just reinventing the wheel

I mean, in the first video, the man's using a chisel for last minute tune up, lol

Thumbs up for the MG!

It really says a lot. Modern presenters put to shame. Also could it be that people enjoyed their motoring more back then? Let alone simplicity and joy of hitting it with a hammer for a quick tire change
