Re: Earliest production car on the road?

I received it in late 2013 from our German archivist Norbert Lange (passed away in last year unfortunately) Some may remember his great works on collectiong MG publications and put all into a register. ...

Re: Aurora TF160 - My new toy!

Hi all, mind you the data base from the official side includes a few failures when it comes to the DVLA data. These have been hand typed to the data fields at the factory (or where ever) We found several typos in the last years like letter mistyping (F instead of E or U instead of V) Also a very few...

Re: MG Luggage rack

Both, the case and the rack are also well known at BMW motor bikes.
(The old Z3 convertible used to have the same design ... with Z3 badge of course)

I use it since 15 years now and never had any problems without a strap.

Re: Which model MGF have I got?

One thing with the Sunstorm (and the Sprint also)...how would you know you have one ?, there are few visible differences and you need to know what you are looking for to even have a clue, mainly it's the alcantara combination as there is no badging difference and no unique colours.

Re: MGF 75th Anniversary

Thank You !
This makes sense cause Dixon Grimsby was missing in any way in our files.
Dixon Grimsby, GRIMSBY, LINCOLNSHIRE
Looks like they do Peugeot now.
They sold 220 MGF and TF until mid of 2003 in total.
