Peter Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 This morning we dropped Mrs Peter's car off at the local garage for a lick of paint then I spotted at the back of the garage a 03 plate MGTF 20,000 miles and 98% perfect.A test drive,kicking of tyres,a haggle and ker....ching it's mine.My reasoning as I explained to Mrs Peter is that it is always too easy to put things off until tomorrow.I will have a nice winter toy to play with. Brruuum Brruuum.Yes I am aware of head gasket,cam belt problems. Quote
Chris Perkins Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 Had a very late 51 plate MGF a while ago. Head gasket went. And, with the wrong make tyres on them they are a nightmare in the handling department. Apart from that, perfectly good cars. Quote
azda Posted September 17, 2013 Posted September 17, 2013 Did'nt you have your mid-Life crisis 20 years ago Peter? A soft top in Winter Sounds interesting though Quote
Peter Posted September 18, 2013 Author Posted September 18, 2013 I'm a child of the 60's.I think Mrs Peter realised it was going to be a car or bike.By spring it will be 100% perfect. (We have plenty of space for cars in the garage)I need to source a hardtop.My mother can't wait for a spin and is digging out her head scarf and designer sun glasses.Boys need toys.(I've also got my eye on a table soccer game. ) Quote
