Guest's review of MG TF 115

“Enjoyable MG TF”

★★★★☆

written by on 13/11/2013

It's a sensible fun sports car that handles really well. Mine is an 2005 115 TF with the softer suspension and glass rear window. Owned for several months and bought from a trusted MG specialist. Low mileage un-thrashed example. Classic car insurance available cost me £157. MPG returns around 30 locally, 41 on a drive. Keep a watchful eye on coolant levels and keep revs below 3000rpm until engine has reached normal op temp and oil temp has risen. Careful in the wet, rear can be tail happy. Make sure rear tyres are up to it, I recommend Toyo Proxies. Great fun to drive, 1.6 engine is fine for me with nothing to prove. Do your homework before buying, owners clubs worth checking out, MGCC and MGOC. Fun in the sun and for those crisp winter days. Make sure you keep the service schedule up to date and have it done by someone who knows theses cars inside out. Majority of head gasket failures due to poor maintenance, especially cooling system and engines driven too harshly especially when cold. Make sure all the electrics work when you view. Build quality can be iffy but improved on the later TF's. Nice looking car and economical to run.
