You're a little gold mine, wish I found you lot before I bought the car. Sorry to tell you this but spent months looking for a sunspot last year and gave up, Sod's law :-(

Just to add my 2p's worth re Scorpions..... Had Scorpions on both the F and the first TF. Not over bearing, and to my mind make the car sound more as it should have, but possibly a bit too subtle for some tastes?

Typical.. And then 2 come along at once! There's another 160 just been listed on Pistonheads in the last few days. Obviously not as good as the one that I'm selling though

lol.. and I sold Ian a set of 11 spoke wheels when I got my Team Dynamic that I later sold on! If you do decide to go with the Scorpion, I should be able to help out in collecting that from Ian for you - he works not too far away from another friend who I know to be coming to MGs in the Park, so may well be able to get him to collect and bring it to that for you

He's got someone picking it up Saturday, but will let me know if they don't show. Thanks for the offer though. The paint still hasn't turned up for my car, so may be struggling for the 1st :-(

Let's hope that they are a no show then If you do end up buying it but can't make it on 1st June, I could still bring it back with me, at least it would be a lot nearer to you. We could arrange a forum pub meet for the handover of it

Pub sounds good, it was my fault it went anyway, couldn't decide if I wanted it or not. Anyway not so much of a rush now, if you or anyone else hears of a stainless back box going, please let me know as my original is shot. Hope I can get too Cotswolds as my daughter was really looking forward to it as well

I'll keep an eye out on the facebook groups etc and let you know if I do happen to spot anything How old's your daughter? The Cotswolds park was the first meet I ever went to, and my son came with me to that. He was a mere youngster of just 10 then, hard for me to believe he'll be 18 in a few weeks!

My boys are 21 and almost 18, I remember when they loved my car nearly as much as I did, then we went through the 'embarrassed by mum being a petrol head' years, and now they're so used to it and happy enough to come to me when their own cars break down lol.
I hope they get your paint in and the respray done in time. Fingers firmly crossed :-)

Just a thought, if your TF isn't ready for 1st June, you're still welcome to come along if you've another car you can use? The only difference being they'd not let you park with the MGs in the Cotswold Park and yo uget charged normal entry price, but you'd still get to meet a few us, have the opportunity to build a shopping list while looking at other peoples cars(!) and your daughter would still get to see the animals around the park We've had a few people come on days out in non-MGs for one reason or another, they just bring up the rear of the convoy for us

Not looking too good at the moment, but may turn up in something lesser as it's allowed. Will let you know and will join at Magor if I can make it.
