THE EXECUTIVE VALETING PHOTO GALLERIES. - No 6 - My Own - Cars Gallery. 1985 MG Metro 1300 Mk2.

1985 MG Metro 1300 Mk2.

My little MG Metro in the showroom at Executive Motoring Services. The large red bonnet in the front of the picture is that of a rare MG SV-R 5.0 V8 supercar which is owned by my business partner (In EMS). The car the otherside is my ZT-Tourer.

Below is an email that I recieved from the seller when i enquired about buying it!

The car was bought new by a university professor in Stockport - I still have the bill. He was fastidious and kept a card index of every bit of work done on the car while he owned it. It was garaged from new and not allowed to get wet - full stop. He undersealed and waxoyled it every year and it had oil changes every 2000 miles or so. In fact, it actually uses zero oil - the first time I have ever seen this on an A series. I have all the MoTs.

I bought it from him three years ago and apart from a trip to the MG events at Silverstone and the MMM event near Coventry it has only bene used locally. Over the last year it only covered about a 100 miles. It is stored in my garage in the house on for axle stands and under a cover.

I really haven't had to do anything to it - I repainted the sills, not because they were rusty, but the original Austin Rover paint had sags and runs! I have also serviced it - the grease points have been done regularly and the waxoyling continued.

I can honestly say you won't find another like it. It is currently SORN and the MoT has expired, but I am happy to put 12 months MoT on it - the local garage think it is amazing and always get everyone to take a look undereneath.
