After a few weeks with pleasant weather in Sweden perfect for ”toppless driving”
I am glad to report that my ”newborn MGF” is working fine.
There was some trubble just after we collected it from Daryl in Poole. Comming up to Oxford there was a waterleak and the expansion tank was empty. After a call Daryl collected the car and in his garage found the heating matrix defect. It was replaced and also was the cooler to aluminium Daryl said ”as a safe, you have a long drive to Sweden”
In Sweden the headlamps was replaced for RHD and our ”MOT” was passed with all flags up. The car is a trill to drive. It feels very tight with all poly-bushes and suspension renewed. Subframes done and the car fully undercoated feels good for our climate.
Personaly, I do not know anything about the hardship between Daryl and the forum.
All I can say is that Daryl has treated me fair and I have a nice car that runns beautiful.
I´m proud of it!

Thank You
Yes the surface is almost perfect. It was good from the beginning and thanks to the
"Metal flake" with its thick clear cote it was possible to polish away all the million
micro scratch from "autowasher"

Yes the trip in GB was great. Oxford and Abingdon with MGCC (now member) Stratford and a theatre play by
Shakespeare. Missed Duxford but we will be back. Ferry to Denmark an over all the bridges to Sweden.
Yes it was super and almost all "top down"

Nice looking car and good to hear that it is going well. Quite a rare car in Sweden I suppose?

There are almost one hundreds MGF in our register. But they disappear behind the mountain of MGB´s.
B.t.w. I have also a rubber bumper Midget, and they are round a dozen in the register:
The sun has ben shining now for almost 4weeks (southern Sweden) and I love to drive my F. A little
hard to avoid speeding!

Great looking car, all cars need a shakedown period after a major rebuild.

Glad it was sorted and you had a good run back to Sweden.

We had a 1275, 1965 Midget, loved the car but our TF drives so well, plus all the safety features.

Look forward to some mountain pics of the cars.

Have fun.
