dsl ◊ 2025-10-27 18:30	^ Because as a Brit, pretty well every British TR4A I've ever seen had wires, never steels. Ditto mid-60s onwards MGBs, AH 3000s, Sunbeam Alpine S4/S5 and Tigers, Spridgets etc - it was the default spec here - if wires were theoretically an option, the box was automatically ticked in British showrooms. However your comment rings a faint bell that some export markets for these Brit things - with rougher roads?? - weren't as keen on wires because they were too fragile, so steels were much more common than in UK.
