The MG F was launched in 1995. It was powered by a 1. 8 litre K-Series 16 valve engine, the basic model having 118 hp, while the more powerful VVC engine had 143 hp. Rover Special Projects oversaw the development of the F's design and before finalising the styling bought-in outside contractors to determine the most appropriate mechanical configuration for the new car.
Steve Harper produced the initial design concept in January 1991, before Rover's in house design team refined the concept under the leadership of Gerry McGovern. An interesting feature of the F was its Hydragas suspension, a system employing interconnected fluid and gas displacers which provided a surprisingly compliant ride but which could be tuned to provide excellent handling characteristics. The MG F quickly shot to the top of the affordable sports car charts in Britain, and remained there until the introduction of the MG TF in 2002.
This is a very nice example of an early MGF, with MOT history back to 2006 suggesting the recorded mileage is most likely correct. The body work, paintwork, and interior appear to be all original, and in good condition, likewise the hood. It drives very well with no overheating or head gasket issues, and always starts first turn. The current MOT expires in March but has no advisories, and the car has only covered 600 miles since then, so it should sail through the next test.
