Why do Volvo folks like MG? Why Dont' We have the same aftermarket support?

posted by  someone claiming to be stinky on  Tue Apr 26 12:57 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I love MG's. I'm currently on the look out for one on the cheap, a sort of play thing, nothing fancy. I've noticed that many Volvo owners like MG as well. What's that about? I subscribe to every Moss motors and British Victoria catalog they have - just to look at the pictures and for general eduacation purposes when it comes time to buy my own MG. My question is how come Volvo, which made Millions MORE cars than MG (Leyland) doesn't have a great resource like British Vicotria. BV sells everything and I mean everything an MG needs to be on the road. I betya you could build an MG with their catalog if you only had a Bare block and a chassis frame. They even sell the proper screws, bolts and itty bitty washers and seals for everything on those little cars. In relative terms: If IPD were a convienience store (overpriced, small selection) then BV would be a Sams Club or Costco just in terms of inventory. Makes me almost hate Volvo aftermarket support here in the US. What gives!?
