Ok Here is my new addition

Post by sexysi » Fri Feb 05, 2016 10:58 am

Ok here is the new addition to my MG family. Its a VVC 2001 MGF. Has 70,000miles on it and loads of history. Been sitting in a field near Sandwich for the past 6 months, so thought I would take a gamble and buy it, to see if i could rebuild it. After paying out only £175!!! and a bit of T-CUT and wax this morning, this is what it looks like.

Looking good and at a bargain price by the sounds of it.

Unusually for a F, the suspension looks high.

To little weight, James. For that price, you can’t expect it came with an engine fitted. :lol:

No, seriously, this is an absolute steal! Well done, Simon, and another one saved from the breakers’. :thumbsu:

Very nice!

The body looks sound - that is a good start.

Have fun
