That's wicked mate!!
Love these
It certainly is a rare beast, normally they were gutted by the mini boys
My very first car. Mine was an 1983 A-reg in two-tone silver and black with the MG Turbo graphics along the bottom half, had the bigger MG badge on the grill.
And red seat belts
It went well, from what I remember. I think we eventually got rid of the engine though as the turbo was shot. After that we fitted a Mini Cooper engine on twin SU's If I recall!
I had one too back in the day. Red seat belts and red carpet too.
Loved the on-off nature of the Turbo.
Being so slow off boost it really felt like you was going when the Turbo spun-up.
Glow in the dark indicator stalks, Alloy rocker cover, Slash cut exhaust..proper 80's style.
Loved it then and would buy another mint one in a shot.
loved the boost gauge thought it was amazing seemed fast at the time bet it wouldn't feel so quick nowadays!
he sold it today, so it will be getting restored and back on the road soon
