Frog spawn
This crazy frog was little brother to the Big Healey and spawned the first proper affordable sports car that (Sprite and MG Midget) survived right up the 1980s, although by then the design was past its best sell by date. The original Sprite is the most collectible of the ‘Spridget’ family and £20K price tags are now commonplace. This is more than double the price that even the very best later (quicker, faster and more civilised) Spridgets can muster but at least this makes full restorations worthwhile. Performance little better than a T Series but their handling are generations apart.
