2004 Mg Zt 260 Se

Looks like a great car. All the work you have had done must be pushing close to £3000. That's money whoever buys the car is not going to have to spend.

I will miss it. I have made quite an extreme change. 2003 Fiat Multipla 115 Diesel!!
So it should be good for 55mpg and will take bikes in the back without taking wheels off or putting seats down. I wanted something i could carry the bikes inside + carry camping stuff. 260 just doesnt have the room.
Does feel totally gutless after the 260
Quite odd looking, for me its more of function over form on this one, although someone at work did comment this morning " have you ever thought about buying a normal car......."
history of cars is:
ford capri
fiat cinquecento sporting
volvo 460
Proton thing that lasted a week
nissan micra
Vauxhall cavalier diesel
Citroen XM
Mitsubishi sapporo
Mazda mx-6
Saab 9000
Volvo 480
Alfa 146 ti
Volvo S40 T4
MG ZT 260
some were pretty normal.......

skygates i have spent a bundle on this! have bills 3k ++

[chopper666]

also have new alloy inners - wheel caps ( still in bag), car had new locking wheel nuts fitted after i bought it. Open to reasonable offers as now have other vehicle.

there are a few minor bits that are needed - that i can do or negotiate price accordingly with buyer:
oil change due in about 600miles
one of the fronts has lost a weight since they were fitted - noticed a wobble on motorway yesterday at about 70, needs rebalancing
passenger sidelight and fog light bulbs are out - i was a bit hasty with the screenwash when topping up ( it was freezing!)
I would probably get the car tracked again (as i am fussy)

thanks

that looks more pearl black than black olive ???

[2V8s]

yeah I was wondering that, as I thought mine was olive black but now I think of it it must be olive green as its defo more greeny than this one, although looks almost black on first inspection

[chopper666]

It has a purple to it, so assumed that would black olive. Any suggestions?
Happy to take advice if not correct

Get the paint code from the passenger door pillar plate, should be three characters IIRC, then it can be confirmed!
