    Question ZT260/75v8 events in 2013. Is anything happening?

    Can anyone tell me if there are any 260zt/75v8 events, shows or club stands etc planned for this year?
    I have a very interesting ZT260 that has been worked on over the winter and would love the opportunity to show the car. I am a member of the MGOC but as good as they are, they don't really cater for this type of car.
    Thank you

    If you return your questionnaire to Tim and go GREEN then you will open up a whole new world of information Charles.

    Lots of info on events etc., already on the site.

    Hi and welcome.

    Strange to hear that MGOC doesn't cater that well. They have lots of positive comments from various members when it comes to sorting out problems.

    As already mentioned before, return the questionnaire and get full access (or PM Tim if you need a new one)
    Also location would be helpful in case you need help and someone is closeby

    Dear Nich
    Thanks for the reply. Nothing would give me more pleasure than to contact Tim and go green..........but who is Tim and how do I contact him? You also mention 'going green'. Now, my Rover 75 V8 that I had from new was LPG converted and was considered to be reasonably 'green' but at 2.5k a pop for the conversion, this was not a route I wanted to pursue again. Given this problem, is there any other way I can 'go green', so this chap Tim would find acceptable and thus allow me access to this years events? I see the reply below also mentions someone called Tim, so I am beginning to think this is not some random name you have come up with.
    By the way, your MGZT is'nt the one with a KB supercharger is it? and if so do you live near the Birmingham area and did you sell me a MK1 boot spoiler?.........if you did, then you know who I am!! I have nearly finished the car and will post some photos on the site when someone at my end shows me how to!!

    Look forward to your reply.
    Best

    Charles

    Tim is the one that would have sent you the questionnaire when you first registered
    You can contact him on the forum via private message (PM) https://www.two-sixties.co.uk/mgoc26...er.php?164-Tim

    Green is the colour your username will go once the questionnaire is returned, allowing you access to other parts of this forum.

    Once that is sorted the rest will become clear

    I can see where you are coming from Charles, Tim is the sort of name that could easily be randomly generated but in this case it is the name of the person who can validate the questionnaire you return to him in order to become a full member of the "Two-Sixties" and gain access to the whole site. If you click on the link Herman has provided it should put you in touch.
    By the way, your MGZT is'nt the one with a KB supercharger is it? and if so do you live near the Birmingham area and did you sell me a MK1 boot spoiler?.........if you did, then you know who I am!!

    No Charles, unfortunately that's not me. Not only do I live "daan sowf" but I haven't got a supercharger fitted.... nor have I got a ZT, only a ZT-T.

    Hope this all helps you to go GREEN (in the member sense) and discover the eighth wonder of the world, that is the Two-Sixties members only section.....
