	OK, build quality, management and employment relations aside.... It is a shame to see the end of a uk-based industry that came out with what I think were fantastic designs:- Mini - not much more to add to the Alec Issigonis masterpiece (and my first car) Rover P6 - maybe our answer to Mercedes at the time? MGB - would look good even today Triumph Stag - classy roadster Rover SD1 - stunning design at the time (1977) Metro - could never replace the Mini but still a creditable small car Rover 75 - it looks British and is worthy of the badge i think the above (and many others) are testament to a fantastic history of design in automobiles. it would be a crime for such talent to go to waste. just think how it could have all been so different...........

I had an MGB GT, the double skinned front wings rusted through from the inside. I remember the Metro when it first came out, the early models were starting to rust after only 3 months. They weren't as bad as the Alfa Romeo Alfasud though, those cars were often written off with corrosion after about a year. Regards Mike.
