Hi,
Firstly thanks for the warm welcome and kind comments.
So how did I arrive here? An impulse buy at an auction back in October 2010 left me the owner of a 2000 Tahiti Blue MGF, 1.8 MPi. TBH up to that point I knew very little about the MGF apart from the fact it was mid engined and had two seats.
Up to this point in time all my cars (for car read large cars/people carrier/4x4's) had to carry family or tools around and now a change in career and children moving out made the purchase of a two seater feasible.
The MGF was now stable mate to my daily run around
Being used to a ground clearance of over 25cm and 31" Tyres the MGF certainly changed my view of the world
Apart from servicing and a new hard top you can see the modifications made to date in this thread here
So my MGF now looks like this
One thing I cannot figure out is why people buy a convertible and then drive around in good weather with the hood up
Since owning the MGF my tan is now several shades darker. I hope to see you at a meet some time soon.

I like the splitter, was it easy to fit?
Tourbillon, just to add to my comments on page 1 about the splitter and to David's comments, the back of the centre piece of the top side of the spoiler (bit you screw to the bumper) there is a cut out which is sitting against the start of the lip on the underside of my bumper. Without modifying this or the bumper the splitter could not go any further back. In this position the ends of the splitter ended up about an inch from the front of the wheel arch which from the ones I've seen appears to be the most common position.
Would agree with David, the further back it sits the better the approach angle you'll have.
On my fitting the ends of the splitter almost meet the front of the wheel arch. I don't recall having to modify anything but as my memory is ****, I may well have done.
Some people seem to have the splitter protruding much further forward than yours PQD44(or can I call you PQ?)
IMO, just asking for kerb damage in car parks!
