I get a £5.5K a year car allowance but it has to have 4 or more seats. I can't sell the Golf, don't want to sell the 5 so it seemed prudent to buy a derv with the power to pull a car on a trailer. The policy for the allowance is only that it must have 4+ seats and be presentable so the MG fits the bill and I can pocket the rest of the cash. :cool:

Not a bad plan.

Apologies SnifferDog for going off topic. Although we ended up back on MG's so it's not all bad.

Just out of interest is their much mapping potential on the derv MG with it being the BMW lump? 135 bhp's close to the Fabia VRS output IIRC so could be quick with decent software.

Took it for an mot today and all it needed was 2 wiper blades. Bargain!

Heres a pic of the pre-mot cleaning underway -

I think I prefer em cause they look more BBS. Current ones look like SEAT leon ones.

I always preferred these ones on the facelift cars:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/MG-ZR-FACELIFT-16-GRID-ALLOY-WHEEL-X-1-/120846533976?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Rims_Car_Wheels_ET&hash=item1c2303c558

Theyre nice too! There are also some 11 spoke ZS mk2 wheels you can get but they are far more rare.

 I thought that auction was for four at first glance, I was all over that  :grin:
