She clearly needs adjusting.  What's not to like?

Skoda Octavia 1.8T 4x4 estate?  You'd get a pretty good one for £3k.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Holiday cottages on the Isle of Wight for 2-10 people? PM me.

Beetle Cab, she'll love it, if it goes a bit wrong you're on the right forums for fixings. Job jobbed.

Head gasket + cambelt + waterpump - £325 to fix. Cheaper than replacing a cambelt on most motors.

I have found my MG to be super reliable, cant fault it for the money you buy em for. I think the reputation they have with some people is unfair.

Mention an MG or Rover and people go 'ooh head gasket' like its the end of the world but if you get it fixed and uprated and then keep an eye on your levels as you should with any car then it wont happen again!
