Fuck everyone, get an MGBGT I've always wanted one, such a gorgeous car! I'd swap the p6 and boat for one any day of the week.

What ? You WANT a Morris Oxford in a fancy suit ?

Looks good - but perfroms badly

The only good one of them is the MGBGT V8 version - or maybe the MG RV8 from the early 90's

IMHO There are many better choices - like a TVR Chimera for example

It'll do the speed limit....quicker than my Morrie was, plus, I have a 10.5:1 V8 I could put in an mgb

We are on the Pahiatua Track at makomako. After you turn onto the Palmy road from the Mangamarie road, we are the old brick school on the right. Drop in if you are up this way and get a cup of coffee at least.

I´m building a BGT with a supercharger from Moss, not cheap but a big increase in power still not going to be "quick" but enough to keep up with modern traffic.

Both Rovers sold on Tardme. They should be gone in a week or so and I will be Roverless.

Get much for them?

500 & 600. One bid on each. The white one is heading to orkland tomorrow. Be a shame to see them go as they are great cars.

I guess it's good they're off to a new loving owner (one hopes!)

I have promised the family that we will try to get another one sometime. One that does not require work. Experience has shown me that I will never get time to do some projects and I might as well buy the finished item.

**Indiana_Jones** · 1st September 2010, 08:15

Sweet as

Be sure to let us know how you get on.
