The “box Sprite” was the follow on to the Bugeye. The MG was a re-badge of that. A bigger engine 1098 vs 948cc, an upgraded trans and a “normal” bonnet (sans the cool bug eyes)

Hey! that looks like mine!

Noticed that too - don’t ask how I could tell.

Oh, just as well. Now I don’t have to feel conflicted about thinking of trading my FiST in. An RS would be the only thing that could do it.
