garco 2006-12-02 18:10	Why Midget? Not just TD?
antp 2006-12-02 18:26	I would also have said just TD (that's why I renamed it like that, I do not know who changed the name)

The T-Series was built in the tradition of these cars, but didn't use the 'Midget' name. The name reappeared in 1961 with the MG Midget Mk.I-IV.
