Re: Another Electric MG F

You're obviously a very switched on chap. Looks great and I'm very intrigued with what you're doing. What's your background if you don't mind me asking? Is that a manual gearbox?

Re: loss of power

Hi I'm not saying this is the fix (or whether your car is fitted with one) as further diagnosis would be required, but I do recall mg/rovers k series suffering with the post cat oxy sensor giving very similar fault.

Both have the little mg face plate boxes....

Re: MGF VVC valuation?

Ha ha. Well spotted. Unfortunately the wheels were on it when we bought it,I've been looking for the 5 spokes with the Allen key bolts which is the ones I think it should have. Glad you mentioned the indicators I new the nearside one was upside down and just assumed someone had fitted a driver's one...

Re: engine stabilizer

Unless mistaken I don't believe there are any on the top. Only the lower one that bolts between the sump and subframe.

MGF VVC valuation?

Hi all I'm probably going to regret this but I'm thinking about putting our F up for sale. Practicality, costs of 3+ cars, uncertainty of wife's job etc seems like a logical move. It's been off the road for the last 3 months for obvious reasons. Anyway I was hoping if someone would be able to give m...

Hi

Hi my name is James, I live in Devon, currently on my 2nd mgf and also have a MK1 zs. Worked as a techy for a mg dealer for 11years from 99 starting as apprentice, so have a bit of a soft spot for an old rover/mg of that time. Unfortunately I think the F is going to have to be sold. I'm a bit new to...
