    Default ZT-T V8 Wanted

    Hi all,
    Some of you may have seen my post on Facebook however I would like to put the word out amongst non Facebook users too.

    I am in the market for a well looked after ZT-T. Needs to be mechanically sound with at least good bodywork. Service history a must and would rather take over a Sunday car rather than something rotten underneath. I don't want any nut and bolt restoration projects, needs to be a good usable car. Colour not too important but would rather it wasn't silver (unless really good in every other respect). MK1 preferred (big ask I know) and would consider a saloon if the right car but really an estate would be preferred.
    Funds waiting for the right car.

    Let me know,
    Cheers,
    Phil

    I assume you've looked here, Phil :
    Complete List of 260s FOR SALE

    OK, "Complete" I can't guarantee, but I check the status of those listed every day as far as possible, and take a look at all the known "watering holes" for new ones coming up for sale ... so pretty complete?

    About 30% are LHD or RHD but non-UK listings, and a few are Rover 75 V8's not ZT260's, but that should be clear.
    (If you do find others or find any listing shown to be inaccurate / no longer available, please PM me. Thanks).

    Best of luck!

    David

    So, I now own a ZTT 260 . Being a member of the MG Car Club, does this grant me full access to the forum?

    Congratulations Phil, which one did you get

    i am sure Tim / Nich will be able to advise the way to become a full member but sadly you will need MGOC membership (as they host our website / forum) I became a member on here 10-11 years ago so don't recall the full process

    whereabouts are you? It's always good to have your location in your profile. It's very helpful especially when you start asking questions / for advice or help

    Thanks Colin,
    I got the black tourer #576 from Jim, a member on here and a very nice chap. I believe the previous owner was also in the club too, a guy called Mick.
    I will certainly sign up, sounds like a wealth of info available which will no doubt be invaluable.
    I'm based just north of Preston, anyone else local?
    Cheers.

    Yes, welcome 'on-board', at least onto the gang-plank!
    Take it from me, if you ever have a problem with the 260, there will ALWAYS be a bunch of people here only too happy to advise and help you out. No exceptions.

    David (P.S. about a thousand miles from Preston, sorry).
