That's the mystery. An R reg MGF.
- black Headlight surrounds (later known as Trophy style)
- White indicators, later changed to smoked style
Both highly inofficial before the official stuff came to market. White indicators had been the most wanted parts from 1998 to 2000
Seen it myself and talked to the owner at .... in 1999.

1999, sun is shining good weather, very green trees but the grass is drying out, possibly race track in background.......

I'll have a guess at Silverstone?

Silverstone is right. :thumbsup:
Was June 1999. (4. - 6.6.1999)
The MK2 proto was parked at another location near the paddocks and that was BRG.
This one was owned by someone who worked for any subcontractor. I forgot the name. However, he had used some of the pre-series parts and put to his car. I recall it was parked at a small junction near the bridge at the old circuit. Every visitor coming from the model carpark passed this place when walking to the trader area.

Nice piece of memories...
Anyway, over to the next

Thanks Dieter that was a good one :thumbsup:

Very well played Tsleight, you gave me a run for my money, we must have been typing the answer at almost the same time, less than a couple of mins between our posts.


Here is a part of a car, I want the exact model / Edition

Psymon spot on, yes it's the car which was unveiled at the Beijing Police Equipment Show.

Nanjing MG surprised everyone with a great looking MG TF Policecar, the futuristic police lights on the back look really good.



Psymon, it's over to you
