Hello from Tyneside 9 years 5 months ago #152180

Hello everyone from Gateshead in Tyneside; we have just become owners of our very first MG, I have had a Rover 75 2.0cdt for a while, but my wife has just made the move from a eurobox 'Peugeot' to a MG F 1.8VVC Wedgewood.

Purchased it two days ago, has 74,000 miles on the clock which is confirmed by every MOT the car has had, it is service stamped to 58,000 miles. It has one or two age related marks, nothing I believe that cannot be sorted.

Now we bought it form a chap in Huddersfield (bit of a 2nd hand wheeler dealer in the MG's ) anyway, all in all it seemed a pretty straight car so the deal was done. We drove it back to Tyneside with no issues what so ever, however our only concern is we find it a little noisy. Not sure f it is like a tappet noise or as some places suggest a VVC noise? so I will be taking the first steps to drop the oil and give her some nice clean Castrol Magnetec 10w/40 and a new filter.

Here's hoping it's not an issue and that we are just a little nervous, after all a little car that has a bit of age, you never know for sure.
