We also saw two new MG6's ......... scared

Oh dear..... sick2


Dave,
I've run a couple of Rover K series- engined cars and I really looked after them in terms of hot spots, waterways, gaskets, dowels, upgraded gaskets etc and I've come to the conclusion that they just do not stand any serious pressure. I lavished serious love and care on a Caterham which still blew up.
Put very simply- it's a pants engine and IMHO should be consigned to the outer darkness.

Cheers,
