Posted on 23/03/2019 11:25 by TakethedogalongNice! We considered a Stag, bit more room for dogs (😂). We towed with our MGB GT, but not this one. Haldon Hill didn’t do the clutch much good........
We tend to go for full on 4x4s for towing, we like grass pitches and CLs.

Absolutely beautiful. Such a lovely car, and nice colour as well. Our MG isn’t up to that standard at the moment, has new interior, but watch this space.......someone got her pension lump sum this month, and a respray is on the list! Currently teal blue, but I am leaving it up to OH to choose.
All I can say to OP to help is choose wisely if you like grass pitches.

Posted on 23/03/2019 17:01 by MilothedogThank you MM, yes it is a Mk2 but a very early one so left the factory (August 73) built using a Mk1 shell so unofficially refereed to as a Mk1.5

Posted on 23/03/2019 17:17 by EmilysDadI have to confess that I only know a MKI from MKII because of the chrome trim on the sills . 🙄

Don't want to hijack the OP thread, Sorry OP, but most obvious thing is Mk1 had steel wheels. Mk1 shell has different door locks to Mk2. lots of other anorak things, but too many to go into on someone else's thread.
A lot of my blood sweat and tears in that car, Oh, and some money
Apologies to OP
