    Default A Request

    Hello!

    I've been around MGs for some time (parents have owned a B roadster since before I was born and I've owned a BGT since 2002). But just lately, I've had a different B/bee in my bonnet - I've been eyeing up ZT-T 260s.

    There are a couple of -Ts on pistonheads at the moment, but all rather far away, so my question is this - I don't suppose there are any ZT/ZT-T 260 owners in the Oxford area who might be willing to let me have a closer look (and listen ;-) ) at their car, to see if it's what I'm after etc. Happy of course to hand over beer vouchers to compensate for time/petrol, and to meet in a neutral place rather than your driveway! :-D

    Thanks!

    -Arthur

    What are you doing on the 19th Dec

    Mini meet at the Motorbike Museum Coventry

    Fair amount of noise bound to be generated

    Ooh, thanks for the tipoff. Until just now, I had nothing planned.

    I'm also a classic bike fan, so a good excuse to nose round the museum as well! What time are people likely to turn up?

    I'll most likely be turning up in a black Alfa 146ti (the MGB isn't allowed out at this time of year) but hopefully y'all won't hold that against me.

    Thanks all for welcoming me to the pony fold, and particularly to Nige for showing me round his immaculate Mk2.

    Definitely getting nibbled by the bug, I have to say - though I might try and eke out a couple more months from the Alfa!
