MG Live 2013 - June 15th & 16th

It's the later Neil. I didn't participate last year but judging from the condition my fellow campers were in the following morning, I think a good time was had by all.

Engine bay cooling ideas

Could this be what Geoff is talking about or is that just a huge air box.

If you camp then you can go in the Dutch tent, worth it just for that.

Re: My latest mod

Hidden behind the radio, just a simple process of removing radio to view clock and oil temp. No trouble at all really. :lol: :thumbsu: Andy, you have an instrument pod built into the windscreen surround trim haven't you? Pop the clocks into that, or another one on the passenger side? ;) Just kiddin...

Re: Triple F project

This is going to be a hell of a car when finished, people think my cars been modified a bit, this car makes mine pale in to insignificance. Can't wait to see it finished.

Re: MGF body kits

Mike Satur doesn't do body kits any more and the moto build kit doesn't come with indicators any longer, so you would need to source your own.
M-99 do spoilers and splitters but not a full body kit http://www.m-99.co.uk/Car_Bodykits/MGF/mgf.html

Re: Massive Thumbs up for MGFREBORN

I've had very similar issues. Since getting my car back from MGF Reborn, I had a list of 38 problems, the worst being loose hub adapters, shocks only finger tight and had 2 sub frame bolts sheer off within 3 weeks of each other. This despite spending a small fortune on the car, he fitted old subfram...

Re: Mobile mechanic needed ...

Jon Norris, he's mobile and I can highly recommend him, I think he's about an 1.5 hours from Macclesfield and very reasonable. This is the link to the contact page on his web site.
