This all-color book-the first in a new Haynes series on modern sports cars-will appeal to automotive fans as well as traditional MG enthusiasts. It covers the MG heritage through to the RV8, the evolution of the MGF, its launch in 1995, mainstream developments, competition performances, record-breaking with the EX253 and EX255, the EX254 "Super Sports" concept car, and the future for the MGF. Customizing and tuning are also covered, plus information on performance and road tests.

If like me, you are the lucky owner of an MGF, then this is the book for you.
Starting off in the drawing room, the book charts the MGFs growth from a mere whim to a fully fledged British roadster. I personally enjoyed the great prototype photographs and the section regarding the cars performance and its future evolution.
All in all, the book is a worthwhile supplement for anyone with a specific interest in the MG brand, and its resurgence in recent years with the MGF.
A good history of the weird and wonderful decisions which eventually led to production of the little sports car so many of us appreciate. Despite so many facts, it's still a good read too.
