Title: Hayward & Scott - New Photos...
Post by: GSB on August 27, 2003, 12:54
Had my rear bumper off this morning, checking for any damage after an MGF run into the back of me last night, so I took the oppertunity to remove the heatshield and take a couple of pictures of the Hayward and Scott prototype... Bear in mind that it doesn't look new, as its done 6 or 7 thousand miles since it was first fitted. Also bear in mind that while mine looks a bit beaten up, it has been in and out of the car about a dozen times, and in all probability modified several times until H&S were happy with it. Production versions will be up to H&S's usual high quality...

I still think it is a beautiful bit of kit Grant. I'm a little jealous of all you GB'ers!
So, did the MGF cause any damage? Just goes to show that MGF drivers are tw*ts   s:D :D s:D

Nothing serious, I need a new left side lower grille, and the rear bumper has a small blemish on it, but thankfully nothing structural... The MGF came off an awful lot worse. broken lamps, knackered bumper... looked a bit of a state to be honest. It took a lot of damage for such a small knock.

Both the cars are midengine, you took the bump to the strongest part of our cars.  MR2s  tend to look a mess when they damage the front also, Mk1s can be a real mess with the pop up lights and all.
