Default update from starbug2

2020 has been a year that we wish never happened in many ways , i don't want to think about money spent on my 75 this year .. with the paint work tidied up and big work below inc replacing rear sub frame stuff yet another set of rear springs the 3rd lot since getting it many year ago .. .. the things we do for our cars ..

alas Bevs inner ear issue is very ongoing and effecting things , we can only try to live with it best we can . partly for other health resons we decided to get a auto car as after many many years of very bad traffic to/from the hospital she works using the clutch was getting a issue at times in the 3 cars we have . so now after a rush after a car event at gaydon when i mention to a MG man my hope for getting a MG HS Hybrid was not possible ,he said he had a MG ZS AUTO on a cancelled order so got in the end a second hand car with only 12 miles on the clock and 99.9% of the 7 warranty left with about £3,000 0f take home list price so a offer we couldn't refuse .... as we want to try to keep the MGF and Rover 75 going as long a possible . true it is only a 1 Lt 3 cyc engine auto but it has a TURBO so drives very well in the limits of the current times since we got it not driven it as much as would like .. 75 and the ZS are the main cars when normal work starts again , Bev is part working from home and i had about 6 mts + on furflow back a few weeks and partly back on furlow working three days only the last two weeks ..... we try to give all the cars a longer run with bev to her work on a roster but the F being used very sparing these days but its not being not taken off road like the 75 .. while we can at least ..

i've had the 75 since about 2008 i guess as had the 45 about 3 years which i part Ex for the 75 .. i've done about 5/6 car events this year so far, way down on normal times and they've been very subject to current times ... i hope soon we all can enjoy our cars and lifes without the virus hanging over us all ... may our cars be able to drive without issues for a long time
