No not tied to the third to last one made! Prefer one that is straight and as original as possible. I grew up with MGs, old man still has 3 and finally in a position to own one but availability is some what limited over here so looking at importing. It would be imported into Australia - there are at least 20 in Australia that were officially imported by MG Rover prior to the admin, but they do not come up for sale often and the one that is for sale is well over priced!
