My New Acquisition.....

[cavboy180]

I have just acquired this car through my brother at next to nothing.. due to him getting my other brothers car....A case of an offer I couldn't refuse....

Hope to keep the cav as well, but not looking financially viable at the moment...oh and the new one is a diesel.. with a chip and straight through exhaust.....

Is it an MG?

[cavboy180]

Yes mate,

Looks tidy. Nice.

Hmmm what can I say...

Looks alright I guess but it aint a Cav or even a Vauxhall, know they are pretty rapid though!

Just watch the HG on these, all the old Rover / MG cars had a habit of popping there HG's!

Hi Mike, all the petrols except v6 and diesels do head gaskets - the diesel had bmw input and tends to be good, to be honest wouldn't have a petrol unless it was v6....

Only the K-Series, only in the Post -95 "Bubble shapes" (heavier cars with more ancillaries), and 90% of the time failures are down to infrequent coolent changes.

As said though, that's a BM lump.

I love the T-Series meself!
