Description

An engaging open-top sports roadster, this 2001 MG MGF 1.8 Sports Convertible delivers lively, analogue driving fun. The responsive 1.8 petrol engine and manual gearbox make for a tactile, involving experience, with nimble handling thanks to the car’s compact proportions. It’s a pure small-road car that rewards enthusiastic driving without being demanding.

Beyond the driving enjoyment it's also practical: with just 58,000 miles and a documented service history the car is ready for regular use. Recent work includes a head gasket and timing belt and the car comes with a long MOT, making it a sensible and affordable choice for someone seeking weekend thrills and easy ownership.
