My dad had a GT6+, and my neighbors across the street had XJ6s and -12s, and we all worked together to help build the Spitfire their oldest daughter (my age) drove in high school.
There’s a joke here about Rowan Atkinson having a masters in electrical engineering and going into comedy.
Beautiful design ruined by 5 MPH bumpers! Same with the MGB.
Urgh. British motorcycles and cars are a pain to work on. Dad has had a variety - Austin, Jaguar, Rover, Triumph (bikes), Norton.
A very popular conversion with the XJ6 jags was to get rid of the 4.2 inline six and replace it with a 350ci small block Chev V8. Easier to work on, lighter, more power and better MPG 
British bikes are the EASIEST thing ever to work on. My spitfire is an absolute joy. Not that it ever goes anywhere
Early bikes sure. But Dad had one of the early 900cc triple Tigers, pre fuel injection.
After removing half the ‘plastic’ the only way to get to the airbox so you could change the air filter was to remove the whole thing… including the carburetors. 
And don’t get me started on Lucas electrics!
The company that brought you intermittent headlights!
Did you know that they once produced vacuum cleaners? It was the only product they made that didn’t suck.
Bloody brilliant!
I’ve got a '74 MGB GT. Very glad a previous owner converted it from positive earth. I do love that the whole electrical system diagram fits on a single sheet of paper.
It’s a fun change of pace from our modern, automatic, fuel injected daily drivers!
My first motorcycle ride was on a Triumph Chopper …I used to go down the block and just sit and stare at it…it was the early ‘70s…I was 8 yrs old…it was all chromed out with a emerald green tank with heavy metal flake…just mesmerizing…The old Greaser told me “Hop On” one day when I was staring at it,
I’ll never forget that day…and the awesome sound that bike made,It laid the groundwork for my love and passion for Harley’s that continues today in my 60’s.
Worth a look.
Apparently we are getting close.
Great find, @komemiute. Glad to see enigma still being interested in DCS. It’s too bad he had to step away from managing his server.
Apparently, a flyable version is present at the flight sim expo that is going on this weekend
I like the smell of what they’re cooking at Grinelli
Is gun’ be gud boy! Heck yeah!
I need that POSTHASTE.
she doesnt turn , … or they flew on keyboard 
I feel like the art of making the video look like old tape is better than the content.
A mishmash of missed shots and dubious manoeuver…
Sorry if it sounds harsh but… Well at least the music was phenomenal.
