The only people who like MG TF's are mehanics, they'd never own one but rub their hands together as they see you being towed onto theire forcourt!
Reliablity: say a prayer every morning before you turn the key and maybe half way through your journey just to be on the safe side, and don't forget to thank the lord IF you arrive at your dstination. I was warned about the head gasket so wasn't suprised when that blew, but then then the exhaust, brakes, electrics... on and on....
The only reason I bought this car was because I was told that once you replace the head gasket with the MLS version it's 100% perfect. Well that was 100% a lie because the rest of the car will also need attention in time.
The handling is dangerous, even at normal speeds braking into round abouts you can feel the back end wanting to slip away from you. The cars eat fuel, water poors from the speakers if left out in the rain. MG/Rover enthusiasts will claim that they are perfect cars "you only need to repair this, repair that, keep and eye on this.. ect" I'd rather just have a car I get in and drive.
MG TF gone! Over £1000 spent, £650 lost, looked fantastic on my drive (hence the 1 star), just a shame it never left the drive!
