I haven't seen it in person. He says it's got 21+k on it, new tires and brakes (I'm assuming pads), "rides like a dream".

I'm not too interested in making this more complicated at this point although I appreciate your potential interest.

It's a good looking bike and the reviews from the period seem to indicate it handles well but is a bit underpowered. The "Monza" version was a bump in hp and had a fairing and some other body work tweaks to make it more of a cafe racer style. So, therefore more desirable. I'm a bit dubious that this is indeed a Monza as the seat and other bits look like a normal V50 but he says he's checked the VIN and it is indeed a Monza. I need to talk to a MG expert to see how to verify.
