I was just going by what the moto-build people told me when i bought the car, from what i can remember there was a yellow montego with a bodykit in revs a long time ago, that was quite angular, the one i had on mine was smoother, there is one on the mg 'm' website from a mg saloon day around 5-6 years ago, i thought it was mine tbh, it looked just the same, even had similar wheels but it was an 89', i will have a look and post the link, thanks, added two photo's to my album, not sure if i have done it right, hope you can view themLast edited by pscnotts; 12th February 2012, 19:10.

From the opposite perspective, I've always wanted to track-down the first private owner of one of my MG turbos, G51 NAV, even just to let him or his surviving family know that his car still lives. I know his name and his then-address, but I've never been able to find any conclusive-enough matches in the online directories.
If he or his family can at least remember the reg-number, it's not too difficult to Google it and a find a million and one matches, because I use it's reg-plate as an ID on nearly every car-forum I've joined.Regards

I've thought about it a few times; maybe address it to him and add "(or Next of Kin)" after his name. Figured what have I got to lose...but then I never do it. I always chicken-out, thinking either it'll just get returned "not known at this address" or worse still, that maybe I'll be stirring-up memories that someone would rather forget, particularly if he's died (which I suspect is possible; he had what I consider to be an elderly-person's name).
It's 21 years this year since G51 NAV was bought as an ex-demo car by its first private owner. You know what, I think tonight I'll go on Google Street View and find the exact house that it first lived atRegards

Unlikely he'll see this unless he has notifications turned on to email him when he receives a PM. His account has been inactive since July 2012. Instead you can email him by clicking on his name and selecting 'send email' or perhaps you could ask a Mod to email him directly at the address he registered with.Regards
