MGF and TF

NEW

After the MGB ended production and the Abingdon factory closed in 1980, it seemed the era of classic MG sports cars was over. While the RV8 appeared in the 1990s as an upgraded MGB, designers were also creating a new model, unveiled in 1995.

Developed under British Aerospace and launched by BMW's Rover Group, the MGF later came under MG Rover ownership after BMW split the company in 2000. The TF was introduced and produced until MG Rover went into administration in 2005.

The MGF revived the British two-seater MG sports car tradition. In this book, MGF enthusiast Tim Morris explores the car's development during major shifts in the British car industry.
The book covers key design features such as the mid-engine layout and Hydragas suspension, details model updates, and compares the MGF to competitors like the Mazda MX-5. It also provides useful information for owners and buyers, along with numerous illustrations, making it an essential guide to the MGF and TF sports cars.
