I am, but I'd be offered it cheaply when it retires.

Why would he retire it if it can still be plated, surely they just get worked till the end?

Aye. I know springs are impossible to get. Clutches maybe NLA, there's a load of other UK market diesel only bits in them too. MGUK has washed their hands of the 6, they like to pretend it never existed.

There will be enough being broken by now. A grand for a tidy running example is fine.

As I said on AS, get a cheap broken one to stash somewhere to store for parts.

E7 makes more sense to get back on the road from a business point of view as wider customer base you can service?
