    Bought my mgf vvc with 61 k on the clock 2 years ago. I was told after buying as a bid on eBay. That it had been sat for 4 years...now just over 2 years on, it has 89200, and still runs like clock work. Most reliable car I have ever had. Reliability issues? I think not. Also sailed right through last mot. Not bad for 18 year old rover. Beat that, Elise man.

    Just grabbed a 98 model for 700 squid and love it. It really is a pleasure to drive...

      700 squid?
      The fucking things are 10 thousand Australian dollars down here (to be fair- that is about 700 squid).

    Hgf on the mgf is really overstated. You will always hear about all the bad ones but never the countless thousands that may of lived for quite some time and perhaps still do. I have a mgf and it never overheats even in traffic.

    Hell No. My 1999 MGF was the worst lemon I ever had. It was fun to drive, but it was a nightmare to maintain.

    i just swapped a jaguar xj8 3.2 sport for one of these :O the jag was a total heap i bought it for £400 and drove it for 3 months and it was sat for over a year since it failed its mot (3 pages of problems :D) im just hoping that the mg isnt as bad and i can sell it when the weather gets better i havent even driven it yet and have only seen it once in the compound with my other cars. but ill take it for a spin soon it might even be the VVC model who knows :D

    how can you be fishing for the brake pedal if it is higher than the clutch and the accelerator!
    fair enough if it was lower than the other two then yes you would be fishing for it!

    • @SammyElston
      @SammyElston 9 лет назад

      he doesnt mean fishing for it because it should be low fishing for it is a saying meaning just trying to find it.

    • @Jimjam1212
      @Jimjam1212 8 лет назад

      I have just recently got one and must admit that the brake is higher for some reason. Feels very unusual, as for fishing possibly not.
