Hi,

I'm toying with parting company with my much loved Late Mk1 MG ZT 260 SE no. 110.

It's a Silver 2004 on a 53 plate just under 12 months MOT + tax till end of June.

Low Miles, proper £2500 LPG conversion, Accufab, Accel Coils, One off exhausts, Wide screen TV, etc etc...

Wondering what it is worth in this climate..........?

Of cource if there are any peeps on the look out for one let us know.

I'm now out of work due to ill health and looking without any cash differance idealy seeing if I can get myself in to a BMW 530d (231 PS) model.

Rossy.

Crikey, you could get an arm up those pipes :eek:

Hope it works out for you (cash wise), I guess most people these days are fightened off by the price of fuel before thinking about what they are actually buying into - a classic head turning rare beast of a machine. I certainly have never ever regretted buying mine, and love driving it. Hopefully, the LPG should do it for you. Wish mine had that!!

Cracking looking example BTW :applause

Everyone that hears it say it's the best sounding V8 they have heard...no seriously!

It's not to loud for everyday driving but yup, it realy does let peeps know how many cylinders it has! Oh and with the one off 4" induction too...

It also has the rare apex alloys altho would benifit a refurb again.

Guess I'll keep my eye on that black one and see what it goes for altho its not gassed...similar milage too!

To be honest I'm not that bothered...just had for 3-4 yrs and time for a change but its hard when out of work.
Plus I drove my mates 330d BM and it flew!! but I've had a 3 series in the past so fancy a 5. Still like the Merc E320 CDi too...

So if its doable fine...if not fine...but will be seeing a friend who owns a garage to see what he comes up with...

Would just prefer it to go to somone on here 1st..its had quite a lot spent on it some of it needed some not...LOL

I agree. Definatly (spelt that wrong ?!) look like straights in the first pictures posted. And then Apex's in the last pics. You changed the wheels between photos :confused::confused:

BTW - I like the side indicator repeater surrounds. Where they from ??

Hi

Lovely car,VERY interested. Been looking to graduate from my LPG 190+ for a while.

Already got another Mk1 in mind but could you let me know when you've thought of a price and where you're based?

Thanks

Yeh same car obviously, just some old and new pictures.
The Indicators are off flee bay.
I also blacked out the front indicator surounds as I think it looks more agressive!

Ahh, yes. Hadn't noticed the spotlight pods were black. Do you have front-on shot ?
