EXTERIOR
The exterior of this MG TF roadster has clearly been painstakingly loved and pampered from new and remains in beautiful condition throughout which is commensurate of a ultra low mileage cherished & garaged from new example which can honestly only be described as totally exceptional bar a couple of small stone chips it really cannot be faulted considering it is now a 21 year old sports car and is a total testament to both it's long term owners who have clearly cherished this outstanding motor car which we are informed has never been driven in the wet and the underside is in excellent condition as to be expected still retaining factory P. D. I markings & production stickers still visible to the subframe's & suspension components confirming careful usage in dry weather conditions only! - The 2nd owner has had a clear coat of waxoil applied to the underside to preserve the outstanding condition for many years to come! - This very special MG TF must not be confused with your average, unloved, tatty or rusty MG TF sadly so commonly offered for sale these days this really is a ''timewarp'' example which is a remarkable example with excellent factory fresh wheel arch lips and sills which is a rarity! - The Smokestone mohair roof & rear window are both in excellent condition and even the original MG badges & wing badges have not faded and in our opinion you will find it extremely difficult to find another in this outstanding condition!
In our opinion this is a totally exceptional example of a much loved pampered example of a now highly desirable & collectable modern future classic in one of the most desirable & rarely seen colour combinations this is certainly a very rare & pedigree motor car which is now 21 years old having covered just 4, 296 miles from new it is possibly a unique opportunity to acquire one of the very best incredibly low mileage unmolested examples remaining!!

HISTORY FILE
This MG TF roadster was ordered, supplied & registered new by S. M. C MG/ Rover Berkshire on the 23/ 03/ 2005 and sold as an approved used delivery mileage example to it's 1st official owner Mr Tidd on the 27/ 05/ 2005 who purchased as a retirement present to himself costing £14, 395. 00 as a 2nd summer/ weekend toy only to be used in dry weather conditions having been garaged and painstakingly kept in pristine condition by this gentleman for the next 15 years up until 2021 at 3, 294 miles when it was purchased via a recognised ''MG specialist'' by it's 2nd gentleman owner Mr Cooper who was a MGF/ MG TF enthusiast who after owing several lovely examples wanted to own an ''as new'' ultra low mileage example and after a lengthy search across the U. K looking at many inferior unloved or totally misdescribed examples he went to view this exceptional example and quickly decided that this was the car he had been looking for as in his opinion this was the very best available with such a lovely colour combination & specification this MG TF met his fastidious standards & he was delighted to find such a beautiful cherished unmolested example with such miniscule mileage and paid a real premium for the car infact the car owed the 2nd owner circa £13, 500 (including a set of 4 brand new highly recommended & high performance Falken ZIEX ZE310 tyres to replace the original tyres for safety reasons and servicing cost's during his ownership) which clearly shows it was a very special motor car to warrant paying such a price for a MG TF in 2021 but you really do get what you pay for with an MGF/ TF sports car these days and exceptional quality ultra low mileage original/ unmolested examples are now highly sought after modern collectable future classics by MG enthusiasts/ collectors alike & this particular car is simply stunning which looks, drives & even smells like a 12 month old car which are now extremely hard to find and this should delight any genuine interested enthusiast looking for the very best of breed motor car!
