2004 MG ZT 260 V8 SE Monogram Poseidon

[kris214]

**Deposit taken**

Reluctantly I'm faced with now selling my pride and joy.

2004 MG ZT 260 V8 SE finished in Monogram Poseidon.

Using build info now available, I've found out this is the very first ZT finished in Poseidon out of just 13 ever made, 5 of which are V8's.

55,000 miles.

Usual SE spec - full black leather electric heated memory seats, 4x electric windows, electric mirrors, traction control, cruise control, auto wipers, xenon headlamps with power wash.

Also has the optional options pack too - powerfold mirrors, sunroof, Harmon Kardon, rear electric sunblind.

Things I've retrofitted - illuminated sunvisors, towbar and I've removed all the Hi-line kit and fitted one of Radioguy's double din units which is wired into the Harmon Kardon amp.

MOT expires mid April 2014 and the tax expires at the end of November 2014. *Will have a fresh MOT before it leaves me*

Car has been serviced regularly with part service history to 41,000 miles (when I bought it). Since I've owned it servicing has fallen to a friend of mine who's the only person I'd openly trust to work on this car. He also happens to be a huge MG Rover enthusiast :)

In my ownership its had a new front brake caliper, EBC vented and grooved front discs, Yellowstuff brake pads, diff oil changed at 46,000 miles, oil changed every 5,000 miles, new 2 speed cooling fan motor assembly and handbrake compensator.

It's due an oil change very soon and this will be done before the car goes for MOT.

Condition of the bodywork is very good - no parking dings, no scrapes or scuffs. Was recently professionally detailed and looks stunning.

I bought the car from John Newey at Summit Garage who's a member here and some of the past owners of this car are also still members here. It's clearly been very well looked after its whole life.

Bad points:

Alloy wheels will require a refurb as seen in pictures. *This can be done before the car is collected...see below*

Window washers no longer work *Again this will be sorted before the car leaves me*

The car is in Northern Ireland. Granted this will probably put the majority of people off but just look at what you could get. If you truly like what you see and are genuinely in the market for one then distance should make no difference. I will help with collection from either Belfast City or Belfast International airports. Larne harbour is a mere 10 mile straight run from Ballyclare and sails to Troon and Cairnryan or there's Belfast harbour which sails to Cairnryan and Liverpool and is 12 miles from Ballyclare.

Asking price is £6,950 ovno *Wheels will be refurbished in silver*

Asking price is £6,700 ovno *Wheels left as they are so new owner can get them done themselves in a colour they'd like*

[kris214]

I can confirm that Andyg2011 has been in contact with me asking for a few more pictures. Unfortunately the e-mail address he gave me seems to be wrong and his inbox here is now full. Hopefully he will notice.

The illuminated sun visors are one of the things I retrofitted :)

Just don't buy a ZTT in black and put green Viper Stripes on it, It might confuse people :~

Is your middle name beginning with "H"?

[kris214]

Just a little update I thought I best make to the advert.

£6,700 ovno leaving the wheels as they are. This would allow the new buyer to get the wheels refurbished themselves in a colour they desire.

£6,950 ovno with the wheels refurbished in silver.

So for now I'm not going to refurbish the wheels. If however the new owner wants them done in silver before collecting then I'll get that arranged.

Thanks.

Welcome along :)

[John Newey]

Welcome, you're gonna just lurve owning a ZT V8! I remember when Kris first bought it from me and if you wanna know any of it's previous history, then contact me via PM. I've bought/sold to the last three owners before you.

[colintf]

Wow Thank you kind Sir :ash


Well done one that man :thumb

[kris214]

Thanks for the comments. Andy is a lovely fella and I've no doubt in my mind that he will take great care of it which is what I really wanted.

It's gutting for me to have to part with this car. I know I've been in this situation before but I always found a way to keep it but unfortunately not this time.

A tear will no doubt be shed when Andy visits again to take it away.

I'd also like to say a big thank-you to this forum and its members who have helped me out at some point since I joined. Please don't demote me from GREEN until the car has left my driveway :)

[Andyg2011]

Welcome along :)


Thanks so much
