Wanted MG F/TF midlands area

Post by simon1966 » Sat Oct 10, 2015 10:22 pm

Looking for a MG F/TF in good condition with long mot.

This will be my first, as i have wanted one for ages. I turn 50 in May 2016 so it will be a present to myself.

If you have one or come across one over the next 8 months please contact me via the forum.
Cannot travel far so as close to Stourbridge just a few miles sw of Birmingham.
thanks in advance

Simon

Hi and welcome to the forum

It is worth experiencing a few as there are quite a few differences between the models, MGFs have fluid suspension while MGTFs have more conventional springs and struts for a start.
