Because it's got a mark on the back and front in the shape of a MG badge.

Front bumpers are available, Rads aren't though, I thought a supply of rads had been secured for the 180............obviously not.

They have. I was initially part of x parts plans to recycle used parts from write offs.

However getting insurance companies and body shops to join in was an enormous battle that was lost.

Shame really.

I sourced the rads but x part wouldn't pay the price for production

As for bumpers they aren't available as a genuine part.

The moulds for the original kits were kept by the original kit manufacturers.

I was led to believe it was destroyed.

Rimmers still list bumpers as available, wether they actually have any is a different matter.

It still looks an easy fix for anyone wanting a mk2 assuming it goes cheap enough.
