You could have my Tiv for a lot less than that.
Taxed and MOTd. Just had two grand spent on it.

I've got my eye on a bigger one.

MGF VVC's are prone to the head gasket blowing and the area around the wings mirrors leaking.

Also problems with side window and roof alignment.

The handling can sometimes feel a bit light, but the gas set-up was changed on the MGT-F.

They are ok if sorted, but for VFM I'd go for an MX5.

You might even get a good GTV for thay sort of money.

There's a mega Corvette Stingray ('77) for sale in South Shields - it's on the classifieds.

There's also the problem of looking like a big pair of tights in one Ian ;-). Just use the M3, the missus can walk.
