1999 MG F VVC review from UK and Ireland
"Bags of Fun"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had no problems with this car apart from self inflicted ones, like losing it a few times round bends in the wet, but that just adds to the fun.
Oh and reverse gear can be a bit difficult sometimes.
General comments?
Before I bought this car I test drove the Mazda, Alfa Spider, Megane, Lotus Elise and nasty Z3, and so far have not regretted my choice for a minute.
My car has been a dream however other people that I know who own them have not been so lucky with reliability.
I wouldn't buy another car from Rover because I get bored with the same car for too long and Rover don't make any other nice cars.
