No, Andy they are not the same as regular ZT/R75 at all. The ones I have are for the V8 but Rover 75 V8 spec (softer?), not MGZT-260 spec.; should have been more explicit, sorry!
Edit: Noted that Rimmers only quote one number (R75V8 vs. MGZT-260) but the parts list says different. Indeed my springs have the parts list number which differs from Rimmers.

As a matter of interest, I had a broken front spring on my ZTT a few years ago - about 100mm off the bottom. The only reason I knew, was trying to
find out why there was such rattle on the front end!

Yes, of all the broken springs I have had (and plenty!) over the years, R800 series a and R75's, the majority have been way low down, often making it difficult to see at a casual glance.Originally Posted by Hairy Harry

I tried e-mailing you to the address supplied but it was a bad address.
Rimmer Bros have them - http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-REB000590PR
Or you can buy them from Suplex http://www.suplex.de/en/contact who say they supply MG-Rover. I have bought a pair of front springs from them for my ZT 260.
In case of any doubt, I would never replace a single spring – always replace the pair.
