Will keep an eye on your progress on the TF.
Last summer I purchased a TF which had been off the road for a year got it through its MOT and enjoyed some cheap late summer motoring but like yours needs a bit of TLC

I'm a fan of these. Had an ill fated dalliance with an MGF, I hope to get another in the next couple of years.

I think that a glass rear window may be after market, however don't quote me on that.

These MGs are insane value at the moment. Very Low mileage examples owned by beardy MG folk (the sort who spend more time looking after their MG than their other half) are changing hands for under £3k. I know the MGF has flaws but you can't ignore the cheapness.

Btw check the engine bay hoses for leaks and the coolant level on a daily basis!

Update 07/04/16

Managed to get the started again today to let it tick over and put a bit of fuel in. However, there is no an engine management light on!

Any suggestions what it could be? I know it could be a million different things, but it hasnt been driven since the last time is was ticked over, and there was no engine light then. Perhaps a sensor of sort?

Is it new enough to have an OBD2 port? If so, buy a cheap dongle from ebay and get an app for your phone/tablet to read the codes.

That's a fun yellow colour, OP. Perfect for announcing one's presence when cresting a hill on a narrow twisty!
