Before & After your MGF/TF?

But I will keep the TF anyway cause it's been so cheap that I will never own such a great car for so little money! :woohoo:

Sergi I gotta admit I prefer the looks of the Z3 too



Z4 is not too bad I guess

I know they are finely engineered autos but I don't care for the looks of the BMW-Z3/4
I much prefer the clean lines of the S-2000, and of course the MGF/TF.

I'm an S-2000 fan too, however the first time I saw a Z3 it made me smile, something which I need, I need to like a car. The Z3 was like a mini Gotham City Batmobile, full of curves, gills and a sense of theatre.

I got out of my wifes ZR160 to buy the F, she had given me a lift!

What did I sell to buy it, nothing, the money came from savings.

However some of those savings were from the sale of



several years before.
The full story of the baja is at http://www.babelfish.demon.co.uk/bajahome.htm

If we decide to change the F it would be for a later trophy but as we have more powerful dailys in the ZR160 and my ZS180 and my toy, the MG maestro T16 so this is unlikley.

talkingcars :omg: that was a real shock. From a man who drives a Maestro that was very unexpected, not quite what I imagined your car history looking like.

That looked like a lot of fun, thanks for sharing it with us. :thumbsup:

No ordianry maestro, it is packing a 2.0 16v turbo engine pushing out 200bhp through a close ratio gearbox, easily under 7 sec 0-60 and will keep going to well over 130................

plus all the other little bits and peices....................

That is some car, bet no one is rude about your Maestro!!! :thumbsup:

In the year before the TF I went through three cars in quick succession: Nissan Primera / Rover 214 / Daewoo Lanos.
Before that I had this :

I've got a thing about Sciroccos and this one was the 4th I've owned; two mark 1 GTs and two mark II GTXis, for a full set I need to get the latest model but there's no way I can afford one.
Before the Scirocco above I had something completely different:

I must tell you that this wasn't a 'second car'. I did actually use it for 2 years as my main mode of transport.

:lol: Your hair was a lot longer in those days talkingcars and it look like you've put a bit of weight on since then :whistle:

My MGF did not replace anything. It was bought as a second car and I do not intend to replace it (mishaps and National Lottery wins excepted). I intend to keep it until I have to give up driving. Hopefully not until my late nineties!

If I won Euromillions a Ferrari 288 GTO might entice me though.
