It looks like i will finally get my v8

[illogict]

Hi
After looking for a ZT v8 for over a year and almost buying 2v8's black olive until he changed his mind and decided to keep it, and I can't blame him :D
It looks like I will finally get my v8. A black mk2 unfortunately registered in 2007 and non-SE but I don't really mind as it has sunroof, harman kardon speakers with highline, xenons, xpower back box, etc... And I've got a spare set of electric heated blue alcantara, powerfold and sunblind :)

Does anyone has any info on number 249 ?

I'm really looking forward to being a green member here ;)

Here is some info on #249 copied from another thread.


VIN 249 - Re-registered 20-20-2007, MKII, Perl Black, almost SE spec.
History tells me , and I think I have this right, that it has the engine from car 008 (Pre-production) which apparently was bent during suspension testing on the test track and the new donor my current body shell, which was then '53 plate, had the engine, gearbox, brakes/wheels etc, removed for a racing project, hence the re-reg to '56 plate. So, somewhat of a thoroughbred you may say.

Hi and welcome

#249 has seen a bit of life then :)

I am sure you will become green soon (and be able to access all the threads) as Tim is as fast as a Supercharged V8 :)

Salutation :D

I used to own the very first MG ZT ever made :) and a Monogram typhoon blue 190 press car which started its life as a silver Rover 75 :D

Google translate does get it wrong every now and again, but hey....................it's an English forum.

Learning languages is often matter of association. Great fun sometimes.


one of the first words I learned in Spanish was the word for Parrot. Imagine a parrot in a parked car

[illogict]

Looks like i got my first issue.
I started the car this morning and got a weird noise.
The tensionner pulley is moving a lot more than it's suppose to.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jKPlLRF70B8&feature=youtu.be

Does anyone know where i can get one ?
Thx

[AndyG]

You need to go green

I looks OK. There are very few problems with the system.

Double check the Air Con Pump and pully.

[illogict]

I ve sent the questionnaire tuesday but i guess Tim has been busy.

Is it really suppose to be moving like that ?

Well, mine doesn't. But it could be load on the alternator, steering pump or aircon.

You can get a new one from RockAuto, club has a 5% discount there as well.

As soon as you go green you'll be able to access the info but for now http://www.rockauto.co.uk/catalog/x,carcode,1425024,parttype,11659
