MGF 999 car for sale

Well I am reluctantly selling my MGF

I would like to have kept the car, but I have not got enough room, and a new project is taking up my time.


So about the car.

1997 British racing green

The car has been modified and all the details can be found on the Practical Performance car Magazine forum.

http://www.ppcmag.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=6807

The main things are

Roof and windscreen removed
Aeroscreen fitted
Seats replaced with light weight fibreglass ones (the ones in the car are now the low back version of the one in the photos)
Half roll cage with harness bar
4 Point harnesses
Front under dashboard braces fitted
Carpets removed
Interior stone chip painted black
Windscreen wipers and motor removed
Side windows and electric winders removed
Lowering knuckles fitted to the front suspension
Individualizing units fitted to split the front and rear suspension.
Modded front bumper
Front subframe and been removed, cleaned down, painted and refitted.
Solid front subframe mounts fitted (from TF)
Front cross bracing fitted (from TF)
Closer ration steering rack fitted (from TF)
Front ARB cleaned, re-painted, and re-fitted
Front ARB polybushes fitted
Rear ARB cleaned, re-painted, and refitted
Rear ARM polybushes fitted

Rear shocker bushes replaced.
Front Splitter fitted.

Spares to go with the car

Rear hydolastic spheres
Front lower wishbones
Under floor coolants pipes cleaned and freshly painted.
Rear control arms
Ramaining parts of full poly bush kit
front ARB
F steering rack


The car was built for the PPC 999 challenge. I came 23rd or of about 50, and the car a lot of fun.

It is a very clean car, the engine is sweat and it starts first time on the button.

Cam belt was changes at 65 according the engine cover.

View is more than welcome.

This would make a really good summer car or track day car for someone.

I would like to get some of the money back for the bits I spent, so I'm looking for £650.

I would have thought it could be broken for more than that, but would like to sell the car complete if I can.

Thanks for looking, if any one wants ant photos let me know.
(the big stickers on the side can just be peeled off)

By that time, who cares.
