Back to the fold.

On the hunt for a decent low milage Mg diesel at the moment, soon got bored with my Astra (and the vauxhall community which is nowhere near as good) and am longing for a bit of MG action again.So if you know of anybody who fancies a swap, or know of a decent lowish milage example (Zs or ZR) let me know..

Another coming back! Doesn't that say something about this car? It might be a bit long in the tooth but it certainly has something!

Hi Glen, welcome back.

The dervs seem popular at the moment, if you go for a test drive in one and it doesnt pull, and feel sluggish may be down to the MAF sensor.

You can tell as it wont rev up to the limiter, not too expensive to sort, so dont let it put you off. Just a good bargaining point, think about £70/£80 get the sensor and the housing.

All the boys are coming home!

I also am bored of my Vauxhall. Quiet, refined, predictable, cheap parts, reliable but most of all boring and common lol.

Mine is a 51 and it's the newest car I have ever owned too.
Although, my Skyline has a damn sight less corrosion underneath (but then it did live in Japan most of its life!!)
