The MGF Register Forums

I installed a JohnGold CC back in 2015 to my 2005 TF. Looking at the web site of the company they stopped selling after market Cruise Control units. Probably due to the need for having one in a new car for some years now. it was not an easy job as the usual companies installing CC units did not have...

Should have known that about a month ago.

They supplied a Mk2 so I had to change that one for a Mk1 and had to leave a "couple" of euro's too.
Whoo these Mk1 altenartors are expensive.....

I wonder what the effect would be on a MEMS2J vvc. I'll have a go as soon as it is available for the early vvc engine

... I was stunned the rear lights standard apparently have no cover on the inside, I ordered those and now I don't have to be afraid to break stuff in the boot. Who's idea was it to skimp on that?.. Well, initially there were no covers. Only after the move to the east, MG came up with these. It is ...

I have re-gassed Hydragas to fit - so I am looking forward to that wonderful ride/handling compromise to be fully restored Kasper! :D The same as I did, and WOW what an experience! I do believe people saying the new systems are driving well, but I would not like the unique hydragas feeling to disap...

Glad you got a good-un! Mine certainly is, but certainly needs a cosmetic restoration (school-mum inflicted body damage) and a suspension re-fresh and I think the old girl will look and feel as good as she did 20 years ago! :D For the cosmetic part i cannot say anything what a restauration will do ...

I do agree with Steve's experiences. did have the same on the TF a couple of years back. simply open up the slots will help immediately.

What about earplugs ? Some reports do point out that hearing problems are more frequent with people driving convertibles. Not only that in an MGF @ 60 MPH you reach about 80 dBa. but I think it also brings a lot of ease. Resulting in a much more convenient way of travelling. If you have good ones (...

@ Mykel and Marina:
same over here.

Congrats! Jan & Rob!

Gents,I'm seriously diapointed no one knows about Brinell. One of the British metal technologist from YOUR golden age! Well a good education helps ;) Mykel, in the past we did repairs to engines to get them running on LPG and on the old A's and B's it is done to make them running on lead free petrol...

Just enlisted, feel happy to do our first MG you de Lux!

Did do this a thousand years ago ;) at the time no-one dared to do so. just followed YOUR web site Rob! I did not do it all by myself, back in those days my head was not focussed on doing such a job but I sourced the guy to make the connections at the spheres, and had a handy guy at hand to do most ...

Only two months to go and the f turns 22 as well. Still a great car, doing over 6000 miles a year, just for holiday-trips and MG related events.

£1000 here for a quick & dirty repair/repaint, £3k + for an excellent job I guess that is the only correct answer. I did my I about 10yrs ago after two dogs scratching all panels eager to get to the remains of a cat that slept all night on the soft top. it was not just the spray job, where there is...

Step by step the number of participants is rising, up to now Two Brittish cars, one from Sweden, a bunch of German cars and a single one from the downstream country. Join in so that the international part of the group gets a bit bigger in number.

We stayed there a couple of time as well and w enjoyed a very warm welcome and we'll miss that special feeling of being at home in Luxembourg

It is good to see 8 of the cars are F's, and 7 of them are Mk1!
At many events TF rules nowadays, and I feel a bit of a special driving a '96 F, the oldest car of the lot. This time mine is not the oldest by far

aahhh.....

Mid summer: 16,7 degC at noon. A bit of rain in between of the showers, an occasional thunder. Yep: it is Summertime in The Netherlands.

Think I'm getting mad: Took the motorbike this morning to get to the office.... Having the Hardtop on the TF would be a good idea
