Welcome back.
Like me you will probably have to travel to see a specialist on MGR cars.
Jules in North Wales and Terry at TS Autos neat Bridgnorth. I’m sure someone will know of someone closer to you. There is stuff to catch up on so enjoy the reading!

Phil was unwell if I remember correctly. Did less and less but I’m not privy to his current situation.
Rear lights I have spares.
Still plenty of suppliers around but the big debate recently has been the quality of the parts currently on offer. China seems to be making rubbish along with India. Long story.

Missed this place, regretted selling my last 190 to this day. Hopefully picking up my new shiny black 190 next week. Nothing compares to these and I have had a few cars over the last 5 years and mg in fact turns out to be my most reliable to date.

Phil is alive and well but is no longer a trader here. He works at Souls of Olney now. You can find a link to the T4 map Dawn refers to in my signature.
