    Nope, no sunroof. Techincally it's not an SE (and not advertised as one) - but it does have most of the kit. It's also the lowest numbered car to have the Mk2 bodykit and spec, as far as I am aware, unless anyone knows different.

    Anything else you want to know about it, just ask!
    Ouch Andy sorry to hear that. I know it doesnt help but if I had still had been looking I would of gone for it....

    Hmm anyone know anybody who wants an xpower grey MkI that has some unique (not saying anymore as working on something) features on? then I can buy this one!!!

    Or could I just give you some money and we just swap the engines over

    Well Rob Wolleysocks is after a ZTT260, but im sure with some persuasion he can have a flip paint ZT instead! Now thats a test for the sales technique....

    Good luck with the sale though

    The paintwork is in good condition, as well as can be expected for a car approaching 50K miles.

    There are some light scuffs at both of the rear corners on the bumper, caused by idiots who can't park properly, but these could be easily sorted.

    When the car is clean, with nice clean wheels, it looks absolutely fabulous in the sun, with the changing colours

    Of course, there is also some room for movement on the price.

    If this had been available 2 months ago I'd have taken your arm off. The mrs ruled out a flip paint car but I'd have made an exception for this one, she can walk if she's so bothered.

    Hi All

    Just to let you all know, I have just agreed a sale on my 260. It's going to an MG enthusiast, I will point him in the direction of this web site as you've all been a fantastic source if information and advice. I don't think I've ever seen such a great source of user support for a car as this.

    Wanted to say thanks for all the advice and help I've been able to get from these boards in the short time I've been a member. You all do the ZT 260 proud.

    Wow, not surprisingly that didn't last long!

    Superb looking car though. Mk2 as well for build #183 - that's low. Possibly a pre-production model.
    Did have #207, now belongs to John :(
    One day, I'll be back in the 260s... :)

    Yep, it's the sister press car to yours, I think mine was used for most of the print media, yours for the TV! It was pulled out of the Mk1 production line and built up as a Mk2 to promote the facelifted range. I beleive it's the lowest numbered Mk2 (or Mk 1.5 if you like).
