Hi,
Looking for a ZT260 in Australia. Anyone in Oz looking to sell?
Also what does anyone know about the supercharger kit originally developed by MG Rover?
Cheers
Mark

Hi Mark and welcome!
I'm not sure how many are down under. I'm sure Tim will have an idea.
You could export one out there?
:cool:
As far as I know, there were twelve 260 saloons exported to Aus as new cars. Some were sold before the closure, but a few (about five I think) went to the liquidation auction. How many have been imported since then I couldn't say - only know of my ZT-T which arrived last October. Steve Foldhazy (V8fangio) keeps a register and may know of any current cars for sale. There was one around Sydney last year sometime.
Where is home Mark? Would you like a 180 instead to get you started? :~
The database says 23 where exported to Oz, all ZT's. I'm aware of three further exports so there are around 26 cars there. :D No 75's
Can you give me the VIN Numbers.
PS. I have greened the cars that are not in england on the list.

Ah, the wide brown land - we love it. Just the place to open up a 260... Thanks for the numbers Tim. Don't know where I got the 12 from - one of those folk lore stories that seem to get around.
For Brummie's info, there is one 260 for sale at the moment for $46k in Bendigo, Victoria (check out carsales.com.au). The owner reckons there were 11 imported out of 770 made!
Actually, Tim, what is the number of MGs out of the total?
I was also hoping to see my name in brown on my posts, Andy...
Malcolm, when you imported your car what value did customs put on it for import duty purposes?
There will be another 260 Down Under by the end of the year (but it won't be for sale!).
