Well I collected my new car today, full service history back to the day, 71k, took her for her MOT and she flew it, lovely interior, roof excellent, she is a feisty little car, could do with new radiator and coolant pipes, as per norm..

She is a 1996 mgf in green, with cream leather seats, mg logo on headrests, 71000 miles, has had 2001 dash console upgrade. HID head lights.
Has just had head gasket replaced, including water pump, cam belts, full head refurb including skim, valve stem seals and relap.
Private plate ..

She is booked in for her full Moto body kit to be put on in February, and she will have Madams 17", Madam will have her 16's, can someone tell me what they are please ?

She has a Miltek quad to go on with a straight through pipe at the weekend with full brake pads and discs all round, although I have been told they are not needed ..

Deep green carpets and roof to go on, along with cream leather hoops ..

I absolutely love driving her, she is very level no pulling either way and her 4 brand new mismatched tryes that stick like ***t

wow she looks fab Jan, well done and happy driving

By the time I have finished you will either love her or hate her, hence her name ...

JAT

Very nice

you could flog those plates and fund something more appropriate may even get some change?

Jan - forgive an old f*** but if you are referring to the wheels on her, are they not Abingdons?

Nice car Jan with 16" Abingdon wheels

Are they Abingdons ?
They are really pretty, I was going to have them refurbed for Madam ?

The reg is worth around £500 I want a JAT one which is the same amount roughley, but I really do not know how to go about doing it all

Yup the wheels are known as "Abingdon" or Cup wheels, as they were fitted to the Abingdon Special Edition F and also on the MGF Cup racing cars.

I have never seen them before but I do like them very much, Tom said they should go on Madam, and that the 17's should go on JAT as with the body kit they will look much better, Madam also hates the 17's and I have replaced everything from her rack to her track rod ends, but maybe its just me

That leaves the 15" VVC's with new tyres still going spare

nice car jan.. glad to see you got a good un ... nice year too good vintage lol..
