    Default Wanted: 260

    Hi Everyone

    After seeing Stu C's and sh4rky's 260's (and a few others) at the Chasewater meet we had I have decided this car is a must.... So I am now on the lookout for one and after seeing the Saffron one that was for sale nr me that would of been perfect but oh well.....

    Looking at around £5k - £6K I guess and typically all the ones in those price range have vanished leaving only the dear ones.

    Cheers

    Martin

    Nice chatting with you on that slightly chilly day, haha. Seems to be a slight drought of them at the moment, im sure the right one will come along eventually though, keep your eyes peeled.

    Yeah was nice though hopefully next time I won't be the only person at the 260 table without a 260....

    My eyes are peeled and I bet Autotrader, eBay and Pistonheads are thinking they are under some sort of ping attack I'm hitting their pages that much....

    Oh and £5k-£6k I can go higher for the right car....

    Only looks. There are a few differences in trim levels between the mk1 and mk2 but really its just which type of front design you prefer.

    I think Richard still has his mk1 royal blue 260 for sale. He is in Norwich, interest Martin? I can ask before you bell him to make sure.

    Martin,

    That's it in a nut shell. I have a, no the, 2004 Motorshow Mk2 MG ZR-X, and hence a Mk2 is a must for me. Likewise my preference is for the lines of the ZT-T, it just comes down to what you prefer. All four versions are great cars !!
