My New 3.2 V6 LWB by MG Autos (Mark) on Tue Jan 22, 2008 11:59 am
Hello to one & all.

Been a memeber for a while now but sadly just after I joined I had to sell my old 2.2 Transglobe.
But now I'm back with a 3.2 V6.

I've had it for just over a week now and so far it's had a two inch body lift & rock sliders with tree bars fitted.

Have som 265/75 R16 Insa Turbo Special Track's on order so should be fitted by the end of the week.

2inch suspension lift is a work in progress. Have the rear Trooper springs on order but still need to sort out a sensible price for the extended shocks.

I will be putting in my Midland CB and Kenwood CD player + 6disk boot changer later today.

Also have the designs for an ARB style winch bumper sorted out and priced up ready to be made, but will have to wait until next month when I get paid again so I can get that sorted out...........

Have tried to attatch some pics so let me know what you think????? :D

I fixed the links for you .....
but the pics are too big .......we have a 650x650 max on here

photobucket can re-size automatically if you want it to...
just set the uploading options to "messege board...640x480" and then hit the "save options" button and all your pics will be re-sized on upload


hope this helps :D

Re: My New 3.2 V6 LWB by MG Autos (Mark) on Tue Oct 07, 2008 2:16 pm
Well as some of you may be aware, my last 3.2 V6 Fronty was deemed life extinct after I received a fairly hefty failure sheet at MOT time. So sadky we parted company.

Now a few months on, I'm starting a new buisness (yer I know it's not a good time to be trying :( ) and need a decent tow car that will also take the dogs and family so guess what.

Yes I've bought another Fronty :D

No plans for lift kits or anything like that this time.

Just some decals advertising the buisness, a few amber recovery style strobes and it's going in for an LPG conversion in a few days time. :D

Thanks for the info Andyvee.

Am actually using a company that I've used before. They converted my BMW about 6 months ago and it's been spot on. Seem to have a pretty good reputation overall and usually their turn around time is only three days as well.
Pretty reasonable price so all in I'm happy so far.

Just hope I stay that way when I get the Fronty back next week :roll:
