I'm sure some were worse than others. I had a v reg 2600 in 80's Absolutely cracking car to drive & once did 40mpg on a round trip to Exeter from Surrey to bring back a 6ft dining table in the boot. And I doubled my money on it when I had the chance to get my old MGBGT back :¬)
They are getting old now but this one looks good - pop some period seat covers on and enjoy.

Mind you, if you want to see how bad they can be, search out nitrosilvia's videos on youtube...
