1997 MG F VVC review from Australia and New Zealand
"The best car in the world, bar none"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear window zipper slider broke.
General comments?
I feel in love with the MG-F after a quick test drive in Jan 2006 but the dealer wanted a ridiculous price for a 1996 1.8i. I bought one on an auction site and it's the best. Drove it 200km home after buying it and no fatigue. I drove a Mazda 323 (Neo) with 17" alloys, but always got sore shoulders. Not so with the comfort of the MG. It is simply a dream car.
