53 MG ZT-T CDTI+ Manual
 
6 Attachment(s)
It's time for me to part with my MGZT-T CDTI+ which I've owned for about 7 years. I've started doing much higher mileage for work (500+ per week), and whilst the car has not missed a beat during this increase, I've decided to get something a little younger.

Please find details below and some pics that were taken a little earlier this year (Heading out to wash/polish after posting this). Can provide more/further information. Car has been serviced every year in my ownership.

Car Details
Price: £950
Model: MG ZT-T CDTI+
Colour: Anthracite
Engine: 2.0 CDTI 135 (160)
Year of registration: 2003
Mileage: 138,000 (Owned since 85K)
MOT: June 2017
Date of last service: June 2016
Interior: Monaco Grey
Location: Newcastle Upon Tyne

Summary of work done:
Rear Shocks (When bought)
Rear parking assist replaced with aftermarket by company that sold me the car. I still have the original control unit and 3 sensors, I suspect one not working, 3 clicked, one didn’t. Gave one to a forum member.
Rear Brake Disc Backplates, Shoes and Adjuster Kit (January 2016)
EGR Bypass (Still have original valve)
PVC replaced with filter less (Still have original)
Battery (within last 2 years)
3 speed fan replaced with Jules 2 speed and gold resister
Stainless Steel back box (2012)
Exhaust in front of Cat (June 2016)
Handbrake Cable
Handbrake Compensator
160 bhp upgrade by MarinaBrian
O-Rings
In tank and under bonnet pump (2013)
Rear Wiper motor
Replaced both rear light clusters. One has all lugs intact, the other has had the lower lug repaired with washer. The rivnuts have both been welded to the body as they were spinning around.
Kenwood head unit replaced with Bluetooth JVC, still have the Kenwood though.

Known Issues
Small dent and scratches on roof (never thought to look up there when buying!), paintwork in need of some general TLC
‘Covered’ scuff on front bumper, crack around one fog light mount
Alloys could do with a refurb
Very slight, occasional, engine miss, hard to notice. Spotted when with Marinabrian one day about 3 years ago. Not caused any problems that I’m aware of.
Nearside front fog light intermittent
Interior door cards/foot trim need refitting (I have some clips)
Display lines come and go on the IPK, all working today
3 or 4 broken lines on heated rear windscreen
Rear Washer pipe split at boot/rear glass join

That’s everything I can think of at the moment, happy to answer any questions.

Cheers

So Mrs Nic tells me I actually have to make an effort to sell the car :D

Mileage is now 140K, price is now £950.

Couple more details, car has a sunroof and 2 working keys. Will leave it a few days before starting to advertise elsewhere.

Cheers

Sent the car for a valet at car spa today, has come on rather lovely. New pics on the google drive link below. Inside really does look amazing imo. As you can see all seats in good condition.

edit: link removed

Gonna advertise elsewhere now as well.

Cheers
