MGA Survivors

Spotted these graphs in an old copy of Practical Classics magazine.

The first shows what proportion of MGAs were sold within the UK against 'ROW' (rest-of-world) sales - amazing to see how few were destined for British roads. I'd love to know what proportion of those sold abroad are left-hand drive, as there are a lot of left-hookers that crop up, but I would assume most were aimed at right-hand drive ex-Colonial countries, like New Zealand, Australia and South Africa.

The second chart shows how many are still in use on the road - wonder if ours falls into the SORN or AWOL category hehe, it's been off the road since the mid 70s.
