Saw this and i like that its not the normal saloon with big spoiler and i like the subtle but still different paint.
I put a bid in expecting it to go for more but i won it for 895. Lots of service history...all important 3belts changed february 2015.
Heres the usual petrol station shot...ive got to give it a full clean and ill get some more. (not a very good pic)
It has stone chips on just one corner of the front bumper which is odd...and laquer peel on top of one of the front wings. Mechanically i cant fault it, yet.

I cant buy anymore..ive run out of space. No room for this one but its fantastic. My newest car so far is my 1995 metro. This thing is newer but still a great drive unlike most newer cars

I'm a big fan of the Z range, I have a 160vvc MG Express van with over 160K on the clock, full folder of history, smoothest K series I've ever owned.
great for throwing the road bike in the back

Suspension is abit hard but thats what i like
Royal Blue apparently..quite unusual for an MG i think..

Washed..clayed..polishee..sealed.
Wheels cleaned and sealed also.
Glass cleaned inside and out.
Its half on a kerb and half on a dropped kerb so sitting weird.
Half the bonnnet was faded and still has strange marks on it.
Before
After
Not perfect but lots better.
Ive got to try and sort the cloudy headlights out..any tips? I was gonna wet and dry 1500/2000 and use rubbing compound to bring it back up

Best thing to do is mop them (G3 or G10), remove front bumper (it's only a dozen or so screws) and then you can get to the unit much better, without leaving crap behind the bumper.

Didnt remove bumper..i couldnt be doing with the extra time.
Not perfect but 100% better. Very happy.
Worst one before.
During..
End result.

Its cracking to drive..my 'grown up' car.
Im getting abit inundated with cars and with to do list thats getting too long.
Ive stopped looking for cars now...the mini has been waiting for me to fix it up for 2years now. Time flies.
