Hi Everyone
I was a member of SWMGF in 2004 ish. I had a red MGF 1.8cc vvc. Unfortunately having 2 kids and a MGF wasn't very practical! But I'm back going to collect my British Racing Green MGf TF this evening. I can't wait!!! Already been on ebay looking at all the bitz I can buy to add to her. Looking forward to seeing you all soon. Jane.

Thanks all. Hi Jan I have just been talking to Jim And Marie Loxton they asked me if I knew you? I went to see Jim as I know him and I have just noticed that the metal strap around the back box on my tf is broken and has had to be removed. The garage tell me I have to either get a complete new back box or see if I can get someone to make me a strap to put back on!!! So I am hoping to get a strap made. As I have other priorities like getting the cambelt done first!

Jane - before I put the Scorpion on the TF, one of the fail points at an MOT was supposedly the lack of the strap The dealer did however replace just the strap, so the straps are available, and can be supplied/fitted without the need for a complete back box. I *think* that the part number is WCU100870. HTH

Thanks all. Hi Jan I have just been talking to Jim And Marie Loxton they asked me if I knew you? I know Jim & Marie very well indeed, they're really good friends of ours It's certainly a very small world! Did he tell you that he's fitted a part off an MG to one of his Tigers and totally transformed it?!

Hi Jan He told me all about his collection!! My hubby does all their computer support at work and at home for them. They are a really nice couple. I love your TF. Mine has a list of jobs to be done. It has lots of niggly jobs but I have started ordering the bits to do it. One day she will be A1. I cant believe people have such a nice car and dont look after them. The drivers seat is torn at the bolster which is really niggling me. The front speaker grilles are broke. air intake grilles broken, and someone has reversed her into something causing bumper to crack and a dent/rust in panel above. I have to get a Tonneau cover, and the cambelt done too! Good job summers coming!!

Sorry!!!!!!!!!!!! I've just realised that I've got an exhaust bracket if you want one. It's in my pile of scrap at DPM (Dinas Powys Motors) outside the front door if you want it.

Jane mine also has a long list of things that need doing, but I'll get around to them all one day! Maybe If you're free for an hour tomorrow, why not pop down to the wheel refurb day in Cwmbran?
