Description
1998 MGF 1. 8i Abingdon
* 82K miles. Will go up slightly as still in use on dry days.
* Full leather interior in 'Walnut beige'. As you can see from the pictures the seats are in very good condition - no rips or tears.
* 16" alloy wheels - all unmarked recently powder coated with good tyres
* No rust.
* Has had the head gasket replaced by the previous owner, so no issues with overheating. The temperature gauge sits just below half way once car is warmed up and doesn't move from there. Doesn't use any water either.
* MOT until April 2026 No advisories.

* Battery replaced a couple of years ago.
* 4 previous owners. I've owned since July 2021 and during this time have only covered ~3K miles in it.

* Radiator replaced in 2008
* Head gasket replaced in 2009
* K&N Filter / induction kit installed in 2011. Original airbox available if you want to restore to original spec.(K&N does make an awesome noise with it fitted though - so once you hear it roar you might want to do what I've done and keep it in place for now as it puts a smile on my face every time I drive it)
* At some point the previous owner has replaced the original radio/ tape deck with a modern Alpine 200watt cd / usb audio system. The original tape deck will be included in the sale allowing the car to be returned to original state.
* Beige tonneau cover also included.
* A dust cover will also be provided.
* Has a hands free Bluetooth phone kit too. Microphone is tucked behind rear view mirror and calls play through the stereo
* Cheap insurance. Does 40+ mpg too - so very economicalThis car is a joy to spin round the lanes and I am only selling due to a change in my circumstances. I just want the car to go to a home where it will continue to be worked and loved .
