for 2k you could pick up a nice 180 mk1 easily. The tax hike isnt happening, and on a run of 45 miles you can expect very good fuel economy. I came back from falkirk in my mk2 180 last week and did 370 miles to £40 on a run, and i wasnt exactly hanging about. This week with 60% town and 40% hooning it to the mrs house 8 miles away I got 260 miles to £39. And that isnt hanging around, the 180 is such good value, obviously dependant on your age etc for insurance costs. But you wont be disappointed and I think the 180 is much better value for money over the 120 etc. IMHO
And as a guide my 2005 180 has just done 29k and I paid £3000 dead, and ive seen them for less. Good luck buddy!

I'll post some more pics later.
I paid £3900 for it 2 years ago and would like to think its worth around £2200 with the mk2 alloys (these go for silly money).
Im in Kettering, Northants.
Its having the head gasket change at considerable cost by Rally Matt (a well known person on the MG forums) so in a few weeks will be running like a dream!
