I wonder what Chapman would have made of the MX5 and the comparison to the Elan - which was a masterpiece in its time.
What he usually did, I guess- 'add lightness' or, to put it another way, make it so fragile it either rusted away, fell apart or went bang very loudly when it hit anything other than a Trabant
lovely car in many ways but I was glad to see the back of mine
