Hi,
I'm Jan from the Netherlands and I'm the proud owner of a Tahiti Blue MG-F 1.8i VVC-M3DK.
It's a British made mid-engined convertible, using the famous Rover K series engine based on a 1400cc engine, but lager bored and stroked to a lightweight 1800cc engine. The VVC system provided nice drivebility using variable valve timing like the VTec or VVTi, but was not capable running higher power outputs. Blanking the VVC system was the solution resulting a stronger and more aggressive engine.

The K series engine is also used in the Caterham 7 and Lotus Elise S1.
