Show us your Mk1's MkII

Post by hotfuzz87 » Mon Apr 27, 2015 7:08 pm

I know a similar thread was done quite a few years back but I thought it would be interesting to see how many Mk1's we've got in the group 5 years after the original thread. Mk1's seem to be seeing a little bit of a revival lately and I'm seeing more and more popping out of the woodwork. I'll start off with my 820E...

Her first appearance as my car.

In the Lake District a few years back.

A garden ornament at the moment but she will move again, someday.
Image

And finally, yes she has a 200 series grille on but my Dad had that done by the dealer and I've yet to take it off (but I will).

I would like some Mk1 Prestige alloy wheels in 16" size. If only they were easier to come by

This photo was taken about 2 years ago; - the day when MG Mal (Malcolm) and Vard (Chris) made the journey from Brads place in Worcester and delivered my then new to me 'Coupe' in West Yorkshire to be temporally stored. My Mk1a is at the front; though this car is in the storage unit presently awaiting funds for a big resto.

The Mk1 in our fleet - oldest Fastback currently known. I can't take credit for these pictures; they were taken by Sam Skelton on 'Drive it Day' last weekend...
