I will be moving it on when I'm ready. First refusal goes to the gentleman I bought it off, though.

1,275cc is the best engine & the round wheel arched cars are considered the best looking. I don't really know why MG when back to the flat rear arches at the time.

MG did that sort of thing around that time.

It's possibly like the front grille on the MGB. Only was there for a year or two. I much prefer it to all the styles they did of them (the honeycomb one on mine is second in my list).

Please can I ask to be put down for second refusal?

I haven't really posted much about it because I haven't been using it much - only when the MO left did I put it on the road. I trust your fleet is still giving yeoman service?
