Description

Looking for a convertible? The 1997 Rover MGF is a fun British sports car ready for summer. This imported two-seater has the 1.8-litre petrol engine that's known for its zippy performance with the top down.

The car is in excellent condition despite its age - shows it's been well cared for. The MGF stands out with its mid-engine layout, giving it balanced handling and making it fun on twisty roads.

One of the more unusual sports cars on NZ roads, the MGF offers classic British roadster charm with its distinctive rounded styling. The unique Hydragas suspension system provides a smoother ride than many sports cars of this era.

Features:

  • Mid-engine, rear-wheel drive layout
  • Manual folding soft top
  • Power steering
  • Front and rear boot spaces
  • Comfortable bucket seats

Have questions about this MGF? Feel free to get in touch. I've owned this car for 15 years, it is a lot of fun to drive. Fresh oil change, fresh radiator flush, new rear window genuine MG Car cover, rebuilt Hydragas suspesion units.
