Hi all, I’ve been lurking here for the last couple of months whilst purchasing my MGF, so time to say hello to all.

We are just coming into summer down here in Melbourne, Australia, time to cruise with the top down, until it gets too bloody hot, then its top up and aircon on.

I am a long time MG owner having started with a 1948 YA sedan that I purchased as my first car in 1976.
More recently I had a magnificent 2003 MGZT 180 and currently have my 1971 MGB and the newly acquired 1998 F.

Thanks for all the helpful tips and advice in the forum, these sites are a great benefit to those of us in far flung locations where knowledge on these cars is sparse and mechanics who have actually seen one are few and far between.

Hopefully I have worked out how to post pictures in this forum, if so, these are my two girls



I have some issues with the cooling system in the F at present, but I’ll cover that in a seperate post

G'day..another member living in the upside down world!
Welcome to the forum
I am new to MG's unlike yourself who has a long history with the cars. There really are some very, very knowledgeable enthusists on here that go to great lengths to help fellow owners out.
I am sure your problem will be given great attention!

Oh shit there’s two of um & close together, are they coalescing, if they are then we could be in for real trouble !
Anyway welcome, glad you’re with us, two of you in close proximity to each other could be a real problem if you were against us.

See, what did I just say, Emgee first post was only a few hours ago. It’ll be more than just cadging a spanner, they’ll be off lamping Roos in their Utes before long!
