It's White with black interior with and early VIN number - 000266 and an 'SAC' registration. It's in fairly good condition and my p...

Re: My 3rd MGF!

Hi Steve and welcome. Very interested in your post. I'm looking for my first MGF and am torn between an original '95 model for historical reasons and a Trophy 160, but it sounds like you would have the Trophy every time.

Re: 1996 mgf full rebuild passed its MOT!!!

Stunning! Total respect for what you've achieved. The red and black colour way of the Mk1 just looks great. I've been looking at a red Mk1 that's currently for sale and I think you've helped me make up my mind to go for it, assuming it's still available. Just make sure you've got some proper insuran...

Re: Searching for P827JVP
