Nothing else sounded like a Maestro or a Metro on the road back then lol!!
Jeez, I never knew Monty's were held in any affection by anybody other than me lolWhat I would love to see on here is a Montego - you were the boy in the 80's when you drove one of those
Awesome, get the camo paint and rollers out
Is that genuine mileage?
Not moved in 10 years, there will be some seized up/dried up/cracked bits. Hopefully cheap enough to get it moving again
@FM155 I loved the Montegos - they were the exec car to have in the 80s besides the mighty Cavalier
I would love to see a tidy MG one in the flesh - I remember my dad bringing home the catalog for the Maestro/Metro/Montego MG lineup. I really wanted the MG Montego in red LOL!!
My Dad's mate had the MG Maestro turbo. It felt like a complete rocket ship back in the day
I would quite like one
When they're clean, they look great but by gawd they could rust.
Still loved mine though. Nice turbo with a tomcat T16 in it would do nicely thanks.
Jaysus! they were as bad as the original Mini's for the rust monster, good old BL steel LOL!!
lol check this old topgear vid out. It's a bit cringe-tastic but the metro gets some slagging. Some of those cars are like 5 years old and are absolutely clean rotten lol
They weren't great cars when they were new that's for sure but that was some hatchet job by Q.
AR just did themselves in with poor build quality and a marketing department that for the most part seemed to watch post war B movies on loop. Sad really...
I already mentioned waxoyl, didn't I?
