1969 MG C Roadster 3.0 litre

Summary:

A reliable, fast, good looking car

Faults:

Twice the distributor broke down.

Actual oil consumption about is at 2 litres per 1000 Km.

Replaced seats and cover in 2000.

General Comments:

My MG C is a very good and reliable car, but I do handle it with care since I own it, which means that for the first 10 to 15 Km I do not go over 2000 rpm until the oil is hot.

The car is an excellent long distance travel car with consumption around 12 litres per 100 Km.

I try to run it every second week at least (not with bad weather or with snow) for 50 to 100 Km so that everything warms up well. I often go over mountains up to 2500 m in the Alps.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
