I thought you could get into a British Sports car and drive it!  After a few years, and a few more British vehicles, I know better!!!      After several years of stop and go adventures in the TR, I acquired an MGA than a MGC.few years and one wife later a mgb-gt than Tiger a 1972 TR6.that car got me rolling again. I have learned much more about fixing them in my last 15 years! So to understate, you do not just hop in your British sports car and go!!A dedicated driver checks all recommended fluid levels,then starts the car, ahh  what a sound.closes the bonnet and is patient.
