The MGF Register is all about the car itself and what you can do with it as part of the original MGF Community. The Register was born alongside the MGF itself and whereas the Register evolved so did the MGF from 1995 to 2010. This page details the various incarnations of the MGF during those years.
The first all new MG for 32 years, the MGF was launched to critical acclaim at the 1995 Geneva Motorshow. Initial attention naturally focused upon the mouth-watering technical specifications of this landmark car for MG: the Hydragas suspension, exotic electric assisted power steering, mid-engine configuration and the award winning K-series engine that had been extended to 1.8 litres for this application (in which the VVC version had also acquired an ingenious variable valve timing mechanism). The styling of the car was judged a successful blend of old and new- with design cues harking back to the last of the MGBs, but with a stance that was uncompromisingly modern and forward looking.
As we look back now, we see what a superb piece of design the MGF represents: the essential design eliminates have endured with new minor interior changes for six years- before the vehicle’s first comprehensive face lift in 2002. The MGTF continued to evolve in minor ways until 2005 when MG Rover ceased to trade. The mantel was picked up by NAC in 2007 and the TF re-worked into its final incarnation until 2010. There have been a number of special editions, new models and detail alterations over the years.
