MGF 1999 1.8 For Sale

Post by adw250 » Thu Mar 25, 2021 12:41 pm

V Reg British Racing Green MGF for sale - 118k miles. Head Gasket done previously. Owned for 8 years, was running fine until Oct 2019 when I sorned and then decided to future proof during lockdown so I could keep her on the road for good. Got as far as front subframe off before health stopped me and now sadly just need the car gone. I felt a sense of responsibility not to scrap her which is why I was future proofing by doing her up but scrapping will be the final option if I cant sell. So just checking here before I go down that route. Black/green leather interior, body work is OK usual few bits of rust but nothing structural ding on the left front wing. Hydragas spheres were fine but I was going to exchange them for re-furbished while I had the car apart. With suspension de-pressurised it is a project for sure or even a parts car - I can have subframe replaced so it rolls out of the garage but with suspension down it is a trailer job and will need work or dismantling. Comes with a Daytona exhaust with quad tail pipe - think they are £450 new - only done 10k since that fitted. Been offered £350 for the car collected by a scrap dealer - if anyone has a better home for her please let me know. I have some pictures but cant work out how to post! Cheers Andrew

Sorned in Oct 2019 so no MOT since. I dont seem to be able to load pictures for some reason. But if anyone wants some can PM me an email address and I can send. Its a project or parts car, not something that is going back on the road in 10 mins. Only looking for scrap price level.

Hi. If this is still available, I might be interested in putting it back on the road. I’d like to see it though.
