Captain Kickass 0 Posted December 5, 2001 Alright I want to show all those patronising gits out there how patriotic we brits are, right who likes the SA-80, The TVR motor company and The MGRover car company? Come now you've gotta like something out all these!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
5thElement 0 Posted December 5, 2001 TVR - just about the only British manufacture left. great company - great cars! MG Rover - a contradiction in terms. They both made great cars when individual companies. SA-80? What's that - another ill-conceived MG Rover model? Sorry Cap - best I can do! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dogzero1 0 Posted December 5, 2001 Eh captain, Â i'm with ya..............I would like to see the L85 as well.........not to sure about rovers though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrLaggy 0 Posted December 5, 2001 You're forgetting Morgan, of course. However, the SA80 and Rover have a lot in common; the Rover POSi I used to own was almost as unreliable as an SA80, requiring an engine rebuild every 6000 miles or so. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dogzero1 0 Posted December 5, 2001 Mr Laggy,I can assure you.......my SA80/L85 has done more than 6000 miles..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brgnorway 0 Posted December 5, 2001 TVR, Morgan, Caterham, Lotus, Noble, McLaren, Bristol and the list goes on. Landrover Freelander short wheel base is among the best! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Killer Bee 0 Posted December 5, 2001 Hands off the SA80 rather than up (L85A1 being the correct designation). The first time I ever fired it at Perbright, I had three stoppages and a broken trigger. If at least they could get the dust cover to cover dust, rather than flick itself open as soon as you exhale in its general direction. Did I mention the dirt accumulation...

So in one opinion we still rule the world in the car industry but numbers. So much for France! With Peugeot, Citroen, Renault and Venturi to there names!

firestormxs 0 Posted December 6, 2001 I live in Florida and one of my good friends races(or is going to officially in 2005 when he gets a multi-million dollar contract) GT2 for team Morgan. He went to a racing training camp in Italy for Ferrarri. Just recently (several months ago) his team was racing Audi, and they beat them. He says the car is great, and I believe him. I don't know much about Morgan street cars, but this racer is sweet!!! I prefer Porsche myself but from what I have seen, Morgan seems like a good car company. BTW, my friend is only 17 years old!

Still they are true to their origins when making cars Colin Chapman himself would be proud of, allthough Caterham Super 7 is probably the only hard core, hands on sportscar left in the world (in my opinion). Westfield only makes hefty copies. No offence! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hollywood 0 Posted December 6, 2001 TVR...the only cars for people who prefer to go sideways. SA80...OK...but please god let it be a newer one...I dont think OFP has the ability to model your gun falling to bits when you dive at the ground. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kavanov 0 Posted December 6, 2001 When I was at Bruggen, I spoke to an armourer who said he had two in for routine maintenance, and they both fell apart through handling! But having said that, I do like the SA80, so heres my hand. Are they putting one in OFP? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MadDog 0 Posted December 6, 2001 The SLR and the Stirling SMG would both be fantastic! What about the Gimpy too? Was the SA-80 around in those days (I presume it was)? Cheers, Dave. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hollywood 0 Posted December 6, 2001 SA80 was introduced in '86...It was so good I know a few people who tried to keep hold of their old SLRs...It's only now being sorted out. In theory it should be good once fixed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
