MG TF XPG Summer project

All that sun at PoL last weekend has gone to my head! After watching the F/TF owners enjoying their road rays, this evening I dived in and picked up a bargain project for the summer



'04 TF 135, 97000 miles

It was previous owner's daily driver and running very well mechanically, just some cosmetic stuff to sort out. Thinking of keeping it for few months, spruce it up over the summer and if I like it, maybe trade up to a decent TF160 from other side of the pond

Already some things to do:
* Fluids/filters change + Coolant flush, clean out and back to nice fresh OAT
* Couple of dents to remove
* Nasty patch of rust on offside front wing
* Some very small areas of rust
* Sticky accelerator
* Replace/repair drivers door lock which makes a nasty grinding noise
* Fix broken heat control knob
* Get out on the road and enjoy some sun!

After an amazingly sunny week here, I think I've jinxed it


On the positive side, I guess I'll know soon if the roof leaks
