Hi,
Just joined although I have owned 'Buzz' (work it out from the reg) for about 15 months. It's a 135 which I hope shows that I've put some time, effort and quite a lot of cash into!! Cambelt, water pump, new hood, custom s/steel exhausts, leather seats, refurbished wheels, spoiler and of course the stripes!! Lots of other routine stuff done as well, with more than a little help from the 'How To' section, which is brilliant by the way.
Lots of bits still to do, it's a proper MG so the list is long and self perpetuating. Nothing major planned, but Buzz may have other ideas!

:welcome:

Buzz certainly looks the part.

Given my experience with a similar vintage machine I can virtually guarantee that what you have spent so far won't be the end :lol:

They do seem to be a money magnet once you start to bring them up to a worthwhile spec', but hey you can't take it with you so might as well spend it on something you enjoy.

I think your right Squashman. I have a wish list for it which grows longer every time I think about it. Beginning to wonder where to start !

Hello and :welcome:
I've had lots of great holidays in Suffolk, it's a beautiful part of the country.
I would love to drive my TF on the roads down there but it's a little far for me sadly :(
Great looking car :broon:

Thanks Bob, only my opinion but Buzz looks better without the hard top. Somehow they just don't look quite right, i think it's probably the large gap at the back between the hard top and the boot.
You should try and make the effort to visit Bob, haven't found the perfect road but there are some very good de-restricted lanes with sweeping curves and tight bends that you can see round. Top down, listening to the exhausts growling, absolute heaven !! :woohoo:

Thanks Sworkscooper. Not my workshop I'm afraid, owned by Terry who runs TMG Cars - specialses in F's & TF's - very handy as he 's just down the road from me.
