Unless your handy with the spanners and quite happy spending numerous weekends under the car desperately trying to get ready for its next mot I'd avoid like the plague!
These cars are getting on now, and are relatively expensive to keep roadworthy. Replacement suspension parts are generally poor quality, certain things are getting harder to find and the old tin worm is beginning to creep into many examples. Not to mention the amount of garages that rip you off for work if you can't do it yourself!
Don't get me wrong, good well cared for cars are out there. However, I (and many others) certainly wouldn't recommend these cars to anyone! I'm just unfortunate enough to have caught roveritis, the irrational love for all things mg rover.

I quite agree Reece, they are getting on,although there are some really good low mileage sub 40K examples about especially 2.5 V6's but they can be on the expensive side to get a really good one.
But as you say the parts situation can be a minefield with even the parts quality from "Trusted" sources sometimes being poor.
