Personally I'd go for the MG...I like my Rover, but at 32, and having never had a true sporty car I would like to own a 260 now to make up for it.
I would point out that I own a 75 Diesel, love the car but I'm selling to buy a 260.

Hello Steve, hello Tom,
thank you for your advices.
The sound is not the only thing that is important for me. I think most important for me is the exclusive character of both cars. It is a car not many people know and also a car that shines in some way - at least here in Germany.
Btw. before I bought my first non rover car since I've got my driving license I drove a Rover 220 Turbo Coupe for about 4 years. And I really miss that car by now.
If I need a car for daily trips and my "non rover cars" is sold in hopefully 1 year I think I would by me a MG ZT CDTI as first car as it runs great.
Greets,
Bernhard
I was originally looking for the Rover version of the V8, because I really prefer autos, but couldn't find one at a price that I was prepared to pay at the time. I really, really wanted a V8 and as I felt time was slipping by, before falling from my perch, decided to go for the ZT .
Either way it was going on LPG because all my cars have run on this for many years now.
I don't regret the decision one bit. It gives a good contrast from driving our other car which is a 75 V6 2.5 Auto Conny SE also on LPG, of course!
I do get a bit confused with what to do with the left foot sometimes though as there isn't much room for it in the ZT.
I could be tempted to change the Rover for the bigger engined one but that would be greedy.
