Post #302,706 by Andrew Grygus 1/20/09 12:57:19 PM Reply	You mean they've finally dumped Magneti Marelli? Sheesh, that stuff was so bad (back in the '60s) that Alfa switched to Lucas Electric - now that has to be bad! Yes, I've had plenty of experience with Lucas Electric - back in the same era.
Post #302,740 by Ashton 1/20/09 6:45:14 PM Reply	Guess I'll have to dredge up sometime, my little visit to Lucas HQ in London (picking up a 'touring package' of Lucas spares for the Sprite.) Their HQ == very def'n of Posh; entry area reminded me of the luxo red-womb of the Citroën Pallas, some years later. Oh and: never had to open that emergency kit, all around Euro and back. Prince of Darkness, Indeed.. at least Vincent went with Miller lighting electrics (though, alas -- Lucas magneto.)
