MG - F 1.8 i VVC Haiden Special - NO RESERVE - 1996

MG - F 1.8 i VVC Haiden Special - NO RESERVE - 1996

IN RISALTO: • Variant MGF VVC equipped with a 1.8i engine and variable valve timing • Fitted with a sport air filter and aftermarket sport exhaust • Supplied with dual opening actuators: 2 keys and 2 integrated remotes STORIA/PANORAMICA: The MG F, introduced in the mid-1990s, marked the return of the historic British brand to the pure mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive roadster segment. The VVC (Variable Valve Control) version stands out for adopting the Rover K-Series 1.8-litre engine with a variable valve timing system, capable of delivering sporty performance and a bright power delivery. This unit was previously purchased on the Catawiki platform and has remained stationary and unused in recent years, requiring a full restoration before getting back on the road. CARROZZERIA/VERNICIATURA: The bodywork is generally in need of attention with several cosmetic defects. At the rear there is a lack of clear coat in some spots, while the front bumper shows signs of wear. The soft top shows signs of age and its supporting frame has points of superficial rust. The headlight seals need to be repaired and the ventilation grilles are not the original ones. INTERNI: The cabin shows the usual wear and tear from age. An aftermarket wood/plastic finish aesthetic kit has been installed (removable) and there is a slightly damaged central armrest. The leather/fabric upholstery shows wear and some of the instrument panel indicator lights are not functioning. MECCANICA: The car is running, with the gearbox functioning but with a high clutch engagement point. The engine bay houses the modified 1.8 VVC engine with the installation of a sport air filter and a sport exhaust. The battery has been replaced and is new; the tires carry a DOT code of 2016 and the front brake pads are worn/low. Being a vehicle that has stood idle for a long time, it requires a mechanical check-up and a full service. DOCUMENTI: The car is accompanied by the circulation documents shown in the attached images. The service book is not present (maintenance history absent).
