Bought mine in November 2006.

Had a few problems but sorting them has been half the fun. Wouldn't be without it. :)

We bought the MGF in April 07 and had a few problems to sort out right away (HGF, rad and coolant pipes) I then used the car daily without any problems until Aug 09 when I got the TF.

I likewise purchased mine in August 2008 and apart from breaking a gear linkage cable which was my fault during a track day supersprint and the standard maintenance, I have had no trouble. I drive it everyday and the best bit is no matter what my mood is when I get into the car, no matter how short the journey, I always have a smile on my face when I get out. Even my precious MGB can't manage that.

bought my TF in feb apart from hgf when driving it home from the dealership and a dodgy connection on the starter motor I have had no problems with it, I use it as my daily drive and I think thats important they are mechanical and dont like to be left idle.

We purchased the TF in September 2006

Up untill last month just over 3 years and 16,000 miles trouble free motoring.

1 x set of toyos & pads and discs all round thats it :p

Then HGF, big service and SS underfloor pipes :rolleyes2: Still cant complain... almost the most reliable car we`ve ever owned, that prize goes to my Astra van which is indestructible :yesnod:

Never mind how much you have done, if you are anything like me you have given up having an idea of how much you have spent. :)
