I agree with Mykel. The best MGF colour. Pity there were so few of them. Makes my silver one look very boring.

    Trophy Yellow MGF Trophy 160 with TT Mk7 exhaust on M5 northbound between Taunton and Burnham on Sea this afternoon. Came off at Burnham on Sea and headed north up the A38. We were in Typhoon ZT260 which overtook you and you then overtook us.

    Ok who owns it ;)

    Spotted between Plymstock & Plympton this afternoon about 4:00 ish

    Shocking ' Candy Pink' TF complete with colour coded hard top (on a private plate).

    Nice cared for and highly polished car - but not to my taste I'm afraid.

    Green MGF, a bit lighter than the ubiquitous HAN with Lexus back lights on the A404 between Maidenhead and Marlow roday. Very clean, made mine look as if it needed a wash, err which it does. Never seen it before round here. We were both in the queue to cross the roundabout at Bisham Abbey together.

    OMG, went to Sainsbury’s in Torquay tonight to do the weekly shop, just coming out of the car park and spotted a nice light blue ish F, colour I’d not seen before, in the Sainsbury's petrol station, looked in good condition, I thought uuum nice example until, I saw them 'Eye lashes', yep eye lashes about 5 inches long over the head lights, :o omg, why would you put eye lashes on an MGF, I like my mods but eye lashes, I think that's a mod too far, I nearly crashed the TF in shock, eye lashes, unbelievable!! :roll: I just don't get it
