TF SUNSTORM SE – AN MG FOR ALL SEASONS

A new MG TF – the Sunstorm SE – is announced today (October 7), combining a high-level specification with a standard-equipped body-coloured hardtop, making it ready for any weather conditions, and in the process the appearance of a desirable coupé.

The TF Sunstorm SE is offered in three body colour options – Raven Black, Nightfire Red and Starlight Silver. The lined body-coloured hardtop is complemented by a Smokestone coloured interior and Gunsmoke Alcantara?/ black leather seats, leather steering wheel, ˜Momo’ leather and alloy gear knob and a single slot CD tuner. The specification includes a black hood, bright pack, 16″ 11-spoke alloy wheels and MG/AP Racing disc brakes, front fog lamps and body coloured electric door mirrors. The Sunstorm SE is available with a choice of engines with three power outputs 115, 135 or 160Ps.

Richard Hudson, MG Rover Group’s sports car product specialist, commented: « The TF Sunstorm SE combines a high-specification with attractive coupé looks, which together produce a desirable SE worthy of any enthusiast’s pride. »
