A pair of MG M-Type Midgets Saturday at Old Car Festival. Only 3,235 were produced. Several hundred still survive. September 12, 2026. Greenfield Village, Dearborn, Michigan. #photography #car #cars #mg #mmm #lbc #mgmidget #michigan #summer #WeirdCarMastodon

I’ve been a bit MIA from Mastodon for the last few days, but there’s a good reason. I bought a 1974 MGB GT V8 project from the father of a friend of mine. Aside from needing a good deal more work, there was a catch. The car was in Burnet, Texas. I live in Michigan. So me, my friend, and another friend are on a mission to run down to Texas to retrieve Gerald the GT and bring him back to Michigan. September 5, 2026.

@knowprose@mastodon.social That was my immediate thought too. The batt is usually mounted really low (in the bottom of the chassis) and its heavy as fuck. Its actually the most expensive part of the car (there is lots of management electronics that goes into it too). I would totally agree, but Ive been driving an #MG, and it is supremely zippy. I have not even hit 100% power burn on it. Max I did is 90% because I did not need to do more. When I need to it just rips the road. So the Chinese at least hit the lineage of British MGs (Cheap, sporty), but as you say, the battery is smaller on that... ... I got the 'extended range' batt for my MG and its only 400km (so its lighter)... The MG does not feel as heavy, but maybe because the suspention is more 'sporty' (read basic). So you dont get the 'loungeroom on wheels' feel. ... so yeah, battery plays a huge part as you say.
