2003 MG TF 135 Cool Blue review from UK and Ireland
"Cheap fun"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong as yet. Momo gear nob loose, but just twisted it a few turns ;/
General comments?
The car looks fantastic in silver with the blue hood.
The seats look fantastic in blue alcantara and have a good blend of support and comfort.
The interior doesn't rattle at all and seems well put together, but the dashboard does look cheap with an almost stone fleck like effect. Change the dash switches and the cars a winner.
The engine's a gem and pulls well low down despite what some people say. Nice and revvy and very economical for a performance car. Wouldn't like to work on it though, the engines in a very difficult place for easy access, nothing for me to worry about mind, but something for buyers of secondhand MGF's to think about.
Keep getting admiring glances from elegant ladies in new Range Rovers ;)
