    Default ZT400 on Autotrader

    This looks pretty good value:

    I'm not sure I like the wheels and it's missing some of the SE goodies but still cheaper than buying one and paying for an SC conversion.

    He is right. I reckon my ZT-T is about 5mpg better with the blower for normal wandering about (4th and 5th gears are all you need). However if you drive like a lunatic the fuel can disappear very quickly, but sometimes it is worth every penny!

    I have been making a few enquiries regarding this particular car. It seems to have been standing for quite sometime as the Vin is number 239 and yet registered in 2006. I would love to have a supercharged version and this has very low mileage compared to the 60k now on mine. Im seriously considering buying and insuring it on the Peter Best classic policy with limited mileage and just use it at weekends like alot of you. Tim have you any details on Vin 239? I have emailed Brian who cannot offer alot of information apart from the date of conversion. I know it looks a bit what shall I say CHAV but changing them wheels back to Apex's would be a start, SE spec does not bother me as mine is non SE spec anyway. Now just gotta try to negotiate on the price. It was for sale privately a few weeks ago for the same price but has since appeared at the dealers for sale again at £10995.

    Got nothing which would suggest it has been in any scraps etc. You're right about the registration as it was not a pre-reg and came off the line on 25th Feb 2004.

    If you do buy it and want to sell those wheels, I know a chav who likes shiny things who might take them off your hands for a reasonable price...
