MG MGA - MGA, A red one too, and a super model!

Hi all, Any Melbourne members may recall that Elle MacPherson caused a stir here when she claimed she tanned WITHOUT sun protection.

So Jennifer Hawkins comes out with this in today's Melbourne daily!

It could well be my old MGA1600, right down to the colour and the chrome wire wheels.

I have an F now, but you will all agree the A takes some beating!

Gee, I thought the A boys would like this one!

You mean you didn't notice?

Came across the photo when flicking through my wife's Marie Claire (working on the feminine side). Jen has never looked as good as this. What's the gunk on the side of the car?

Reflection from the sand

The paint doesn't look natural because the colour has been edited (from black or dark green), that's why the reflections look strange (the tone is inverted). But I guess no-one noticed that the first few times of looking!

Problem is that the image was scanned from a local newspaper, not the best source.

Just what is so super about that model of MGA? I thought it was the Twin Cam that was so special. And just why is the owner letting some woman smear sunscreen all over it? Can't be good for the finish...
David Lieb

Any woman that has to go to the beach (or anywhere else) with that much luggage is probably too high maintenance for me!

Oh, and I thought you were talking about an model MGA ....

Neil is quite correct. The car is BRG. It has been edited, but not very well. If you go to the website, the behind the scenes photos show the original colour. Or you could just look at the attachment.
Cheers,
Phillip
