Faults:

Previous owner had fitted electronic ignition which kept failing. Reverting back to old points system has cured the problem.

General Comments:

The car has had a complete makeover and is driven daily. It is a real joy to drive with great handling and turn of speed for the car's age.

Parts are fairly cheap and readily available. The layout of the car makes it easy to work on and I find it best to have regular oil and filter changes along with 2 full services each year.

The driving position is the best I have ever encountered. You feel part of the car, not as if you are sitting on top of it as with many modern vehicles. I can drive for miles upon miles in the MG just enjoying the experience.

Overdrive provides for good cruising and in my opinion is a must if you are considering one of these cars.

The only drawback, if you can call it one, is that the car is very thirsty. You will need a big fuel tank for long journeys and in these days of unleaded petrol, make sure you have a ready supply of additive.

Most of all, simply enjoy the experience of driving a truly classic sports car.
