Hgf?

[jeffers]

With the amount of HGF topics recently just wondered how many of us have blown a head gasket. Pretty sure mine has once (christurbo?). I blew 2 on my last car (MG F).

hmmm, I'll let you know!

I think that on latter cars this has been much less of a problem as development work continued.

 

I have not heard of the 111s 156bhp vvc having any real issues.

Neither car (Nov 97 and Feb 99), about 100k miles between us.

Not when I had it. The previous owner also said it hadnt happened to him either.

Im not going to tempt fate and put anything in this poll....

Had a HGF on a K-series but that was not in the Elise but a MG.

Picked mine up from Horizon last weekend after the dreaded HGF

 

Hopefully I'll have another 38k before it goes again!

30k miles and no failure, but now with Duratec.

[LHudson]

2 but that's not bad going over 166k miles in 8 years...... Could almost call it reliable....ssssshhhhh
