I have owned my 1999 MG-F since new. It's a great little roadster and I have enjoyed driving it over the years. It was converted to electric and certified in 2020. Regrettably, it's time to sell it to make way for more EV conversions.
This unique EV was the first MGF to be electrified and VASS certified in Australia. I’ve owned it since new, and it still retains its clutch and five-speed gearbox, allowing you to either leave it in third for effortless daily driving or shift through the gears for an engaging driving experience. Whether you're looking for a fun, zippy weekend car or a distinctive electric daily driver, this convertible pocket rocket delivers an exhilarating ride.
