    Default Help! ZT-T 260 SE Wanted

    Hi , I'm new to the forum and have been looking for a ZT-T 260SE Mk2 for some time. I saw one advertised this week and had already planned to buy it but when I called it was already sold.
    I don't have silly money to spend (I have seen people asking 13K) so don't mind higher mileage so long as it's still a nice car.
    If there's anyone here thinking of selling or know of someone I will be interested (unless the car is black or red, not my colours).

    If I have to give up on the seemingly impossible search I would consider a 190 SE Mk2 so long as it had a sunroof, but have not seen one of these either for some time.

    Anyway thanks for your help / advice etc in advance.

    Does it have to be an estate?

    Sadly it does, there's plenty of saloons around (relatively speaking) but I do need an estate.

    The ZT-T's as you are finding out are far and few between, you have to be quick, but do come about, you just have to keep an eye in the usual places, good luck and welcome by the way.

    Problem is you will still be thinking I wonder what a V8 would have been like

    Hang out for a V8 estate, you know it makes sence.

    I think I probably will wait for a V8, the 190 would have to be an SE with a sunroof and in very good condition for me to even think about it and they seem to be almost as hard to find as the 260! The 190's are almost all basic spec or +, there was one SE recently but it was knackered.

    I still have a relic which I need to sell, an SD1 Vitesse which was my first V8 (and second car). I kept thinking I would get around to restoring it but with work, familily and motorbike that is not going to happen. If I did get a ZT-T260 I could finally sell the SD1 which hasn't turned a wheel for 10 years and feel I had a suitable replacement at last.

    Thanks for your replies already and also for welcoming me.

    Cheers:-)

    They do crop up, it's a little waiting game which will be worth it

    Thanks, it seems I will need to wait some more! (which I'm not very good at) Just hope my current car holds out long enough.
