MG ZT's with the 4.6 V8, don't you just think they're lovely? Just looking at them and thinking what a handsome looking brute they really are, and I mean the engine is hugely tuneable too  :o


Abso - f***ing - Lutely!

Really like 'em too!

Didn't know they were especially tunable.
Are they Rear wheel drive?

How did I know you'd say that Stuart? Can't think!

If only I could!

That's the pitiful FWD shopping trolley version, though, no, as it's the 190?

The 260 is the one you want ;)

.....there's a 2004 estate on Auto trader with a Mustang engine for £20,000! :o

Is £20,000 for a 6 year old ZT-T a fair price? :-?

Not a particularly great drive and the cabin is rather bland.

Pretty well screwed together.

But 20k....you could get a more powerful Monaro which has a more capable chassis for half that
