What is your budget?
New or used?

I suspect a major consideration for the manufactures is the likely sales, the MGF owner is perceived to be cloth cap and pipe, or lady or hairdresser, not in the same ball parks as spotty saxo owners or wanna be racing driver lotus owners.

What model number?

Do all the other dash lights come on and off as they should?

Has some one moved the bulbs around?

My first thought was "change the cap".

Not sure about the steering - might be worth a EPAS reset.

Have you measured the height at the rear?

Speak to the insurance companies, many offer multi-car policy's.

We us Tradex who give us a policy on all 5 MGs. When the policy started they took both our NCB's and applied them to the overall package.

Yes, as Chris rightly says, these two cars are either side of the EU3 emissions reg that came into force in Jan 2001. Both are MEMS 3, but the earlier car has more in common with the Mk1 MGF - particularly with respect to the inlet and exhaust design. Are you sure both are MEMS3, I thought to run M...

It doesn't get that hot TBH.

I'd agree that apart from the top end of the engine there is no difference when it comes to working on them.

It is a soloution I'd use if I already had the components but if buying new I'd get something designed for the job.

Looking foward to the finish results.

Access to the base is through the enginebay so not too hard. The biggest problem is what they have done to the cable.

If you are really lucky they may have just changed the whip which is easy as they just screw into the base.
