Driving
Good fun car - got almost £4000 off list price - good savings to be made if negotiate hard.
Performance
For what you pay - excellent. Back end can snap out if pushed and slight oversteer but nothing too major.

Living with it
Reliability
Roof leaked and driver window opened by itself in the rain! Took a while but dealership sorted.
Image
Much better than an MX-5, Toyota MR2 looks like a poor mans Boxster. The TF doesn't pretend to be anything but what it is - a good fun, not overly expensive roadster.
Comfort
Not great but hey you are not buying a Lupo.

Security and Service
Security
Good for a soft-top.
Service
Rover give the MG badge a bad name. Customer service puts people off you know.
