Surprised no one mentioned the reason the Rover 3.5 V8 was so light; its block was aluminium. Engine was designed by GM for the Buick and other compacts. We Brits got a lot of use out of the 215; Range Rover, TVR, P5B, P6B, Morgans, Land Rovers...
Hahaha you're not just reading and driving Jag Love, you are actually trying to have an argument with me? Some advice, don't bother

My Dad had one of the original MGB GT's and he always said it was one of the least safe cars he'd ever owned as there was far more power than grip. Sounds perfect to me....
I've got a I4 77 MGB. Fun car.
One of my teachers used to have one of these, sounded nice.
