Might be of interest to someone here?

No worries, not got it (yet?), seller thinks its worth a bit more than I offered as a breaker.

OK i may have one available soon, annoyingly the local trailer rental co had its car trailers nicked so my cheap collection option has disappeared!

Daz will the VVC calipers I may end up with fit?

I think £250 for the interior is a bit optimistic. I struggled to get £60 for the mint set of cream leather seats & door cards from my old MK1. Thanks for that Daz, must admit i'd referred to ebay 'items unsold!!' - must get better reference library! On the plus side I got £80 for a tatty set of Mk...

OK went for a proper inspection this pm, there's a lot more rust than I spotted originally (got under car today) - one sill is totally shot and the other is none too good (rust and big dent), theres also more heavy surface rust under there than my mates old Alfa! Roof is useable but does have a coup...

Bargain, nice people as well.

Damn sight cheaper than same job on a 944 - the water pump was £250!

And is it actually faster than a VVC?

For £250 you may as well...what also have you got to do... Well............... paint the 944 (its actually working now)! new exhaust on Stag service the 1200GS refurb my bicycle pay for daughter's Uni accommodation...... oh what the hell, its only £250 :D Report back later, just in case I do decide...

Hmm

I can see what you are all doing, holding off so I buy it and rejoin the fold......................might do that!

Ian

Popped round again today for another look, dont think sills need doing, its the usual rust holes in front of rear arch (not part of sill - easy repair?) Both rear arches have some rust - but not terminal. Surprised no interest either as fixer upper or breaker - what do we think its worth? Interior m...

No room for me to store and play with this at moment..........not mine, spotted for sale recently and went for a peep, could be a good buy for someone: R Reg BRG MGF VVC No MOT - weeping brake Master cylinder, poss a small welding patch on OSR sill and needs new exhaust (seen a few on ebay for under...

Anyone at £40 collected?
Thanks

Yes I spotted that, think it might be too much work/cash for me.
I've interest in the Granada and Alpina at moment so MG might stay, it is rather lovely!

Yeah I think he got offered a lot more cash !
So not rushing to answer all F enquiries, looking forward to zooming around Mallory Park in it next Friday.

Been Gazumped on project car, how annoying - but lets see if there's any interest, not under any time pressure now.
