The MGF was unveiled to considerable acclaim in the autumn of 1995. It was powered by a 1,796cc version of MG Rover's K Series engine, mated to a close-ratio five-speed manual gearbox. The impressive ride was courtesy of Hydragas suspension, similar to that of the Rover Metro. Performance was lively—for the standard (non-VVC) version, you can expect around 8.5secs. for the 0-60mph sprint and a top speed of 120mph. Some 77,269 MGFs had been built by the time the model was supplanted by the TF in 2002.

There cannot be many MGFs which have covered fewer than 21,000 miles from new, but this example has, despite being in almost continuous use. Finished in its original colour of Solar Red with the desirable option of a Mirage cloth and leather interior, it has had just three keepers from new, and entered the present registered lady ownership in August, 2008, when it had covered 13,510 miles. Prior to that, it had been maintained as necessary, with the service record containing stamps issued by SGL MG Rover of Preston in September, 2002, at 2,887 miles and in October, 2003, at 5,721 miles. Drive Direct MG of Widnes serviced it in September, 2004, at 7,110 miles, and the most recent stamped service was performed by an independent garage in September, 2008, at 13,760 miles. Although not stamped in the service book, an oil and filter service was performed by Copmanthorpe MOTs in 2019 at 19,765 miles.

The MG is supplied with its current V5C and its complete original book pack including the owner’s handbook, service book, Pioneer radio manual, audio system guide and in-car entertainment guide. It was MOTed in April, 2025, but the vendor advises that a fresh MOT will be issued for the sale.
