MGF and TF - The Complete Story

In the wake of the demise of the MG Midget and MGB, there seemed little prospect for the MG badge beyond being used as a kind of 'GT' badge for various Austins and Rovers.
However, thanks to the determination of a few people and an enduring affection in public hearts the tale has had a happier ending. This is the story of that journey from desolation to rebirth, just like the phoenix from which the project that created the MGF took its name.

With a deeply researched text, detailed specifications and other data, and over 300 illustration, mostly in full colour, this book by renowned motoring author and MG expert David Knowles will be a vital addition to the bookshelf of anyone with an interest in modern British sports cars.

MG Z Cars

The MG Z cars were produced at a pivotal time when the MG Rover Group separated from their previous owners BMW and stood alone in the highly competitive mass car market. In this readable book, motoring journalist and Austin Rover expert Craig Cheetham reveals the inside story of the development of the range of MG Z cars that were designed to save the company. The book explores the formation of the Phoenix Corporation, the holding company for the MG Rover Group.

It also looks at the design and engineering initiatives that would make the MG Z cars more than just a clever rebranding exercise, producing cars with lasting appeal. The book describes the MG Z versions of the Rover 25, the Rover 45 and the Rover 75, providing insights into how each of the models was re-engineered to meet the demanding standards of MG's heritage.

The book reveals how, despite all these efforts, MG Rover eventually ran out of money, bringing an end the British-owned mass car industry. Complete with tips for owners and prospective buyers on what to look out for, this book is an essential guide to the MG Z cars.

MGF and TF

NUEVO

Launched in 1995, the MGF marked the revival of the classic British MG two-seater sports car. In this book, MGF enthusiast Tim Morris details the development of the MGF and TF amidst significant changes in the British car industry.
After the end of the MGB and the closure of the Abingdon factory in 1980, it seemed the classic MG sports car era had ended. An upgraded MGB, the RV8, appeared in the 1990s, but designers were also working on a new car, unveiled in 1995.
Developed under British Aerospace and launched under BMW's Rover Group, the MGF later came under MG-Rover ownership after BMW split the company in 2000. The TF was developed and produced until the company went into administration in 2005.

The book describes design features like the mid-engine layout and Hydragas suspension, model changes, and competition with cars like the Mazda MX5. It includes information for owners and potential buyers, along with many illustrations, making it an essential guide to the MGF and TF sports cars.

L'Austin Metro de mon père + MG Metro et Rover 100

Grande sœur de la mythique Mini, l'Austin Metro a connu un immense succès européen dans les années 1980. Plus qu'une simple citadine moderne, elle est aussi un symbole. Lancée en 1980, elle marque le nouvel élan de l'industrie automobile britannique, après des années d'errance.
Ingénieuse, fiable, réussie esthétiquement, la Metro va permettre au groupe British Leyland-Austin Rover d'éviter le naufrage redouté et de renouer avec la croissance.

L'arrivée de modèles sportifs MG puis la sortie d'une version à cinq portes font de l'Austin Metro une incontestable réussite commerciale. Cette dynamique est couronnée par la 6R4, une incroyable version à quatre roues motrices, destinée aux rallyes.
Restylée et équipée de nouveaux moteurs, la petite Metro connaît une seconde carrière dans les années 1990, sous le patronyme de Rover 100, avec un positionnement plus haut de gamme.

Sa route s'achève au terme d'une incroyable carrière de dix-huit ans. Avec plus de deux millions d'exemplaires produits, l'Austin Metro-Rover 100 sera un des plus beaux succès de l'industrie automobile britannique du XXe siècle.
