bref ◊ 2007-11-01 10:14	Doesn't look that fake. I believe it is a real MG TF
greybear ◊ 2007-11-01 10:37	I think it's genuine. It is over-restored with modern paint, different seats (maybe) and those awful nudge bars. But the replicas usually have either front-hinged doors or wide wheels. Definitely not a Naylor, Gentry or TG. -- Last edit: 2007-11-01 11:01:24
DynaMike ◊ 2007-11-01 12:07	On the other hand the running board seems to be too straight, and the front of the front wings is too long, too far down... Cf: /vehicle_35380-MG-TF-1953.html

nzcarnerd ◊ 2007-11-01 21:21	I would agree with genuine TF - date 1953-5. The replicas weren't so common thirty years ago. This one is on skinny tyres whereas most replicas use wider ones.
