On the Surface:

A tidy example of the Mk1 MG F, this 2001 car is finished in the ever-desirable British Racing Green with a black soft top over a cloth interior and boasts a genuine low mileage of just 70,902 miles.

Maintenance & History:

Having had just two owners from new, this MG F has been with The Vendor since April 2012. It has seen enthusiastic use, particularly on rallies and touring events throughout The Vendor’s ownership. It is accompanied by a good history file containing past MOT certificates, maintenance invoices and the original MG bookpack. The bookpack includes the MG Owner's Handbook and a Service Portfolio, which holds nine service stamps dating from 2001 (at 2,968 miles) through to 2009 (at 46,735 miles). Over £3,500 has been spent under the current ownership, ensuring the car remains in excellent mechanical condition. Notable works include the replacement of the radiator, cam belt, brakes, and stainless steel coolant pipes—essential updates that contribute to both reliability and performance.

The Model:

The MG F was the first all-new MG design since the MGB, marking the marque’s revival under Rover Group ownership and launched in 1995. With a mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout and Hydragas suspension, the MG F offered distinctive handling and sporty dynamics. Powered by a 1.8-litre K-Series 16-valve engine producing 118bhp, it delivered spirited performance with a mid engine package and a well-balanced chassis.

Sale Insight:

This smartly presented and mechanically sorted MG F offers a great opportunity to acquire an increasingly collectible modern British classic. With low mileage, strong history, and recent investment, it is ideal for enthusiasts seeking a usable, well-loved example with provenance and character.
