What did you say! Was it rude!
Decided to keep it yet?
Shameless bump.........still available.....
Hi there. I am new to the forum and have much love for mg's and especially the 260. I have previously owned a Rover 200 brm (still have this one) and also a zs 180. My dad has a 1978 mgb gt v8 and also a 1999 rv8 so we are bit mg mad. My wife has suggested that she may be happy for me to look at a 260 and I would be very interested incoming to look at the car. Please could you let me know where abouts you are? many thanks, Simon
I too have ( like many others) an RV8 and a 260 so if you can get the 260 to join the others you have then go for it! I have had my 260 only since last summer and I love it...yesterday marked exactly eight years since I bought the RV8..and I still love that too!!! Have used both this week, RV8 to go to MGCC Kimber House in Abingdon and I took the 260 to work this morning. Different engine noises and very different to drive but both have the right badge and the right number of cylinders. So go for it!!!!
ZTV8 gone...Lotus gone....RV8 now lives happily in garage with Matra Bagheera and Aston Martin DB7
I have to agree with "ianq" I also got mine last summer, end of May, and love it, I have another twist on the V8 theme though having a 1968 Rover P5B with the 3500 V8, very different cars as you can imagine, but still V8, in a British car with an American engine. Go for it, you know it makes sense!
thanks very much guys.....I am desperate to get one to join the family of mg's we have at the moment!
