Renaming your MG?

#1 Post by L Austin France »

The famous MG Midget will soon have to be renamed the ' MG small car' or something similar.

First thing that came to my head when I read about "Midget Gems" was a new name for the "MG"

Still MG . . . and apparently doing rather well

MG overtakes Honda, Renault and Mazda as UK sales hit record high

We had a "Dwarf" person of reduced height, at school his nick name was Tich, it didn't bother him at all, he went on to be famous, well before "Warwick Davis" when we left school which was a good one as it was approved :D he drove about in a Rolls Royce silver cloud, seat and pedals altered of course. The name could have been Morris Garages Miniature :crazy:

What about the many species of plants that have "Dwarf" in the names. :crazy: too many to name. Isn't "Dwarfism" a recognised medical term :?:

Dwarf is apparently considered acceptable because of the medical terminology around it
