Interestingly, if you really like that colour, then if you don't mind having 70bhp less you could save £5.5k (http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk/www/cars/MG+ZT/Ne-2-4-5-6-7-8-27-44-49-53-61-64-67-103-133-146-236,N-240-4294966775-4294966777/advert.action?R=201022360313554&distance=35&postcode=ls134hx&channel=CARS&make=MG&model=ZT&min_pr=&max_pr=&max_mileage=&vehicleYearOfManufacture=2005&vehicleRegLetter=54)!

Lincolnshire? Nope, never seen him.....:rolleyes:

Probably North Lincs...:)

45000 miles and a £9k asking price - you've got to like bittersweet to go for that, bit like marmite I suppose

102k miles and belts not done!

[Phil]

102k miles and belts not done!
Which belts?

[SteveTD]

Cam belts I believe

Cam belts I believe

We have a Duplex Chain not belt. :p

the "moderate motorway mileage " V6 was being referred to with regard to the cam belts - bet it also has a dodgy stat housing and rattly VIS motors- nothing unfixable and all a good bargaining point of course. If it were another monogram colour I would be tempted to go round there and have a look- its only just up the road from me.

I know - the 190 has a cam belt though.

I made a call on it as I fancied another bittersweet. However for me, it's probably worth no more than £3k, but he wouldn't budge more than £100 on price. Plus it's the other side of the country so I didn't bother. Top spec and good service history though.
