    Default ZT 260 For Sale

    Price drop: now £5300

    Low mileage, late registered MG ZT260, one of the last MK1s to be released by Longbridge (199 of 217 built). Full service history and has just been serviced. Benefits from having had a 4 wheel alignment, giving excellent high speed grip and stability. Sounds truly awesome, thanks to Zero exhausts.

    First registered by MGR 24/1/05. Bought and first taxed by previous owner 11/09/05 with 10 miles on the clock. Bought by me January 2009 at 40k miles. Bodywork in good condition. This car has been completely reliable and the only non-service part I have had to fit in the past year has been a single coil pack. Will be very sorry to see it go, it?s an awesome car for the money.

    Nice car. Don't expect it will last long at that price.

    Given what I got for mine, I'd say that price was a little too low! I'd have listed it at 7000 and been prepared to move down to 6k. I don't see why you wouldn't get 6.5k for it tbh.

    Hell of a lot of car for the money!

    Christ I'd have ripped your arm off for that 6 months ago. Agree it's a bit cheap myself.

    Have to agree.....Another 1K on that gives you haggling room..... whereas another 2K on that gives you exclusivity...

    .. exclusive in so much that you'll have the car all to yourself with no enquiries at all?
