Probably cheap money for a unique car. I went to see it yesterday for a guy in NZ, but I don't think that it was quite his cup of tea. I would have bought it like a shot, if it hadn't been for the shortage of a few pennies - 530500 to be exact!!
Never mind, one day my prince will come.....

Thanks Tony
Yeah, we ummed and ahhed for a long time about bidding on it, in the end she who's money it is decided she would rather wait and get a minter, or close to it, for the bit of extra coin that will cost, given the shipping etc etc to get it here. So the wait goes on. It was verrryyyy tempting.
Cheers

Well, I am now the proud owner of the aforementioned "black hearse" on Ebay

Those who have read this thread:

Will realise that I didn't quite know what I was buying until after the event apart from that it was a powerful estate with pretty low mileage for the year, only after googling the reg number did I come across these forums.

I did get a message from the seller "had a guy out from the MGOC who gave good feedback....", presumably tonybubble

I obviously need to get it checked over by someone "in the know" as I have very limited knowledge of cars in general let alone a ZT 260 so I contacted Vospers in Exeter (ex MGR dealer but still taking on MG repairs) who seemed vague to say the least about the model, does anyone know of a dealer in the area that may actually know what to look for (fuel clip, diff oil etc - thanks Keith ) and can do a proper service ?

TIA

Dave.
