With a strong following as a modern classic, the MG Fs and TFs featured a mid-mounted 1. 6-litre or 1. 8-litre engine and arguably handle better than the highly regarded Mazda MX5. The second-generation MG TF changed from the earlier car’s complex Hydragas suspension, in favour of coil springs. Various cosmetic changes occurred with the Mk. IIs launch including a revised grille, redesigned front headlights, bumpers, side air-intake grills, rear boot, etc. Production was suspended in April 2005, when MG Rover collapsed but not before 39, 249 Mk. II MG TFs were built from 2002 onwards. Great value for money and an ideal entry into the world of classic cars.
The TF 115 offered was supplied via Gillingham Rover, being first registered in the UK on the 31st of January 2003. Finished in Charcoal paintwork with a Black cloth upholstery and a Black hood, the MG is a low mileage example having covered just 42, 000 miles from new, at the hands of just three former keepers, and has resided in current registered ownership since 2020. Benefiting from a full engine overhaul in 2021 by MG specialists Rough Luck Racing, this was completed a mere c. 5, 000 miles previously. Furthermore, a new starter motor was received in 2022, and the TF was last serviced in 2024 (at 41, 460 miles), again by Rough Luck Racing, including a pressure test and new spark plugs. Pleasingly displaying the original supplying dealer number plates front and rear, the TF also possesses its spare wheel and jack. ‘HF52 KHY’ is accompanied by the original combined owner's handbook and stamped service book, there is also a collection of previous MOT certificates, a no advisory MOT until October, previous invoices, and a current V5C document. Minimal mileage since the engine overhaul, and offered without reserve!
