Hi,
Picked up a nice and bright shiny red MGF with black hardtop yesterday and still grinning from ear to ear.
Really pleased with it so far, even for the non VVC model it's quick as hell I think, seems as fast as my old 1988 Supra 3 Litre which had 200BHP that I sold.
Will post some pictures up soon!
Cheers,
Darren
Newbie with an MGF!

just be sure not to race it untill the oil is at 90 deg..... oh yeh and keep a savers pot for the headgaskets.....double check the timing belt and if you have no proof of last date id advice you to get it changed along with the tensioner and water pump....... but apart from that ...enjoy,,, im on my sencond engine
