I'm lucky in that I can just squeeze (and I do mean squeeze) the F in to my garage so it doesn't have to stand out but I'm not a hardtop fan either and sold the one that came with the car. Rather than buy one, I'd prefer to spend the money on a new softtop from MGFMania. The hoods on the F/TF are really good especially with a glass rear screen and 'essential' anti-jam straps. When I drove the North Coast 500 with a collection of older MGs in showery weather, mine was the only hood that was ever folded as it was quick and easy. Winter motoring on a crisp day with the hood down is not to be missed!
