Here is the picture of the 250 Bhp Honda S2000 engine in the Hoyle MGA that i promised to post for Rough Luck.

I think that car was on their stand at Silverstone either that or I saw it in their brochure

It looks really well done to a very smart standard

Yes it was on their stand at Silverstone, it has been prepared to the same exacting standards as their suspension systems. John had spent two years rebuilding it and its first debut was to our (Epsom MGOC) Surrey Run in July 2009 to Amberley in Sussex. John used to own NG Cars, a kit car company producing fifties TF replicas using the running parts from a MGB, he then went on to manufacture the MG suspension systems developed by Trevor Taylor (also an old Epsom member)
The suspension systems are not cheap, but are of a very high standard indeed. he still receives praise from some of the overseas purchasers some two years after they have fitted his systems.

That's my car, that is...I wish.

i allways said i'd have a classic MG one day....... V-TEC FTW!

It looks gorgeous. I hope the brakes, suspension and steering have been upgraded too, or it could have a fast but short life.

It has had the full job, has got Hoyle front and rear independant suspension enlarged brakes and the Honda S2000 engine, cant remember the gearbox, but the diff will have come from a Ford Sierra, will see if i can find some more techy details.
