MGTDr spotted in Cuba

[Rosebud and Bill]

A Brit Travel Agency has spotted a MGTDr in Cuba.  The part about cars is near the end of the story, so just keep scrolling down.

Museo del Automóvil
It seems strange that a city that is a living car museum should have a building dedicated
for that purpose, but Havana has. It is actually only a small museum, with an entry fee
of 1CUC, unless you want to take photographs, for which there is an outrageous 5CUC
extra charge.
The main space in the museum is given over to vintage cars, which are not generally
seen on the roads. Most are American and in well-worn condition, but the most interesting
one was a 1920s Rolls-Royce 4-seater open tourer in a dilapidated state but absolutely
complete. An astonishing “barn find” which would be worth a fortune outside Cuba.

There was a separate roped-off area with an odd selection of vehicles in it, including an
MG TD replica, possibly a VW-engined Lafer from Brazil, and a sports car that the lady
in charge described as a Maserati, but I very much doubt whether it is. Also a Daimler
DS420 limousine and several motorcycles including a Ducati.
Not the best car museum I have been to, but another one for the collection

Here’s the 1920’s Rolls Royce, just think what this would be worth in America.
