	My friend has had to move back to Portugal, but has been unable to sell their MG in time for them moving back. It's now on my drive in West Yorkshire. It ended on ebay last week, but in true classic MG style, it had a hiccup when he came to collect. The electric fan wouldn't kick in so the water bubbled over. The end price on ebay was £6100 www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174947144571 I'm going to fit a new electric fan relay (its already had a Kenlow electric fan upgrade). The relay packed in, I'm going to rewire it with a new fan relay kit. It also has a matching picnic basket for the rear mount and a few other bits and bobs in the boot like the headrests. £6100 Collect from West Yorkshire Here's the text from their original advert: The time has come to sell my beloved 1976 MGB Roadster. Great little car if you have always wanted your own little piece of motoring history! Good over all condition. Fresh out of the garage after not having much use through lockdown. Starts straight away. Good runner and ready for a well deserved drive around! A couple of dings and scratches but nothing serious. New front suspension coils, New engine mounts. New thermostat New gaskets New seat covers and carpets TAX Exempt MOT Exempt Here's a walkaround video of the MG:

	No enquiries yet, I'm surprised! It's now sat at my unit under a car cover.

	These rubber bumper conversions do seem to be slower sellers than others. Even when compared to those kept with original rubber bumpers. Also doesn't help its autumn and the clocks will be going back soon.
	Projects/Classics: 1974 MGB GT (it's best not to talk about this one), 1972 Austin 1100 (The Purple Peril that has consumed a lot of fresh metal, welding gas and wire so far) Daily drivers: 2010 Audi A4 (my wife seems to have taken ownership of this), 2008 Audi TT (I hate them, supposed to have been a stop gap but currently stuck with it), Specialized Allez (cycling to work allows me to eat loads of cake)

	Good point, maybe best to re-advertise in spring
