The Appeal

The MG TF really was a car that personified what made MG great. A punchy mid mounted engine, lightweight construction and a crisp manual transmission. The TF is undoubtedly a car that turns the task of driving into a true pleasure. 
Although first hitting the showrooms in the 1990s, the car we have here is a final year 2011 model and hails from the models rebirth that came under new ownership in 2007, thus benefiting from a horde of styling and performance tweaks which really modernise the car, without compromising on the raw simplicity that drew appeal to the TF in the first place. 
Well presented, low mileage and with a smart collection of servicing and ownership history, this little pocket rocket wants for very little, and its triple black guise, stands beautifully as one of the best examples of the model on the roads and available for purchase today.

Summary 

When it first launched, the MG TF rocketed to the top of the affordable sports car charts and looking at this example it really is very clear to see why. 
A brilliant overall package that combines good performance, with high build quality and genuine every day usability if one wishes. The MG TF is very much a jack of all trades and precisely what one wants in a modern classic. 
A final year 2011 model, this TF is undoubtedly the one to go for, having been subject to years of engineering development and boasting improved, sportier and more aerodynamic styling to help keep the car looking effortlessly modern. 
If you’re after a highly usable, but equally fun sports car look no further than this well maintained, low mileage TF.
