New Member - Hello

[carfix]

Hi, Just found this forum and I am impressed.

I have had three previous Maestro's during the 80's and always thought they were such an underated car.

The previous cars were a 1.3HL (old type), 2 x MG Maestros - one facelift from new.

Yes I was that person who bought a Maestro from new and I paid for extras such as better radio, electric front windows and alloy wheels (only year when they were not a standard fit) !!

After a number of other Rover cars I decided to treat myself and I bought a J reg, British Racing green, 2.0i to tinker with.

However, due to work commitments I could not give it the time and care it deserved so stuck it into a local barn and forgot about it.

Well, that was over a decade ago and I guess it's time to get the thing back on the road and get involved with this forum.

Hello nice to have you on here

[carfix]

Many thanks for the friendly responses.

I will try and get some piccies of the MG shortly once I free it from the barn storage.

I have not actually seen it for at least 5 years although I have the interior in my loft and the remains of the head lining in my bedroom (don't ask).

It was seeing the article about recovering the head lining by Jeff Turbo that got me onto this forum site.
