Though nearly extinct today, the British open-top sports car was once king of the enthusiast motoring landscape. Conceived as stylish, affordable, and informal transportation for a newly-emerging postwar middle class, the era of the classic English roadster has deeply ingrained itself in the Petrolista consciousness like few other niches or subgenres of fun-machines have. MG’s, Triumphs and Austin-Healeys were the heavy-hitters of the time, and each one is explored in a fascinating, detailed, yet light-hearted and entertaining way in the BBC documentary “The Golden Age of the British Sports Car”, presented here in its entirety for your viewing pleasure.
