Manual 5-speed gear box
Electric power steering

Mid-engined, ie engine sits between the seats and trunk, so access is via a removable engine cover behind the front seats
Mileage :approx 80,000km (speedo stopped working around 75k
Runs on premium, averaging 35-40mpg
A/c needs gassing...I never bothered because I don't really use ac when I'm driving it
I'll throw in a digital workshop manual
Reason for sale: not enough time to drive and it spends most of its time collecting dust
One of 12 MGFs imported by the then dealer, and probably one of two still on the road (I know of a few more that are parked for various reasons)
Couple things before you call:
This is not an everyday car / daily driver. DO NOT buy it for your wife / daughter / girlfriend / son, if your son wears a man bun and tight pants
It has a cloth roof...when it rains hard or you use a lot of pressure to wash it, water will trickle in a bit....can't avoid that with a British convertible
Engine is not easy to access, so you need to like working on cars
Not a common engine, so you need to do your research and understand the car before trusting a mechanic who has never worked on one
It does not like crawling traffic on very hot days. Even when new, there was the risk of overheating.
No, the yellow car is not for sale
If your first question when you call is 'where ah getting parts for dat?', I will hang up on you
