Hi,
I'm a newbie to the forum so please bare with me.
Hoping to acquire my first MG TF in the next few days/weeks. Just wondering if there
is anyone in the North Wiltshire/BANES area that specialises in servicing and/or repairs?
Regards

Re: Newbie
A E Wilcox in Wickwar, South Gloucestershire are highly recommended, if not too far.

Re: Newbie
Hi and welcome,
I third Mike's recommendation of AE Wilcox ~ take 4 of my cars to them for servicing and MoTs.

Re: Newbie
Thanks for the replies. The TF I was interested in has been sold, but I'm now looking at a low
mileage '51 plate MGF with steptronic and a low mileage 2004 TF 135 in Cardiff that popped
up on eBay today. Really don't know which way to go!!

Re: Newbie
They are 2 completely different cars, do you want an auto?

Re: Newbie
Yes, I realise that they are both completely different. Can't make up my mind whether to go for
the more classical looks of an MGF, or a TF. Decided against a steptronic, so it will be a manual.
But really starting to like the looks of the Freestyle, but none for sale in my part or the world,
and can't afford a Trophy.
Perhaps I'll wait until the meet at Cotswold Wildlife Park in June, see what's for sale there!!
