Hi all


Have been the owner of a MGF for almost 2 years now, but only just discovered this forum.

The MGF is our second car, driven by my other half a couple of times a week and we use it at weekends in the better weather instead of our Alfa .

We decided on an MGF because we wanted an authentic 2 seater soft top that looks and feels the part. I managed to get hold of a low-mileage 1999 1.8 VVC from an enthusiast who wanted to concentrate his efforts on an MGB he had.

It has been pretty reliable, needing work only to the brakes for MOT last year, but I think there are a few jobs that will need doing in the near future and shall be looking for advice and recommendations from fellow owners on the forum.
