Greetings All
My first car was an MG Midget which my dad and I did up it was a 1972 year and we had it from 1989-94, at which point I bought an Audi Quattro. My dad bought an MGF in 1996, unfortunately it was a bit of a Friday afternoon car, as some of the early cars were. So much so that MG offered my dad a free new one after 18months ownership, which he accepted. He kept that car until 2004. I used the original MGF to drive to my wedding in 1997.
I always kept a soft spot for MG's and then last week I decided to dive back into the club and bought a 1998 Nightfire red 1.8i MGF, with a view to "doing it up" with the intention of keeping it long term and using it to teach my daughter to drive in 2 years time and as a first car, and that ladies and gentlemen is full circle for my family and MG's.
I intend to complete a college evening course on body work and painting as this is the cars weakest area although in fairness even that's not bad.
Thanks for taking the time to read my ramblings, and long live MG..........

Hi and welcome (back)
There is plenty of info about repairing, maintaining and upgrading the F.
We have a project F that is a father and son project for my lad if ever he pulls his finger out and takes his test, he's only 24!
