MG ZT-T 120+ Starlight Silver *SOLD*

Tim_Burgess · 2nd January 2016, 16:48

Having bought a new daily drive, I have decided to sell my 2004 ZT-T 120+ so I can concentrate my time / spare cash on our Japanese spec 75 saloon.
The car is ZT-T 120 number 71 of only 211 built, finished in Starlight Silver. It is a Plus spec model with the following extras:

• Intelligence pack – including message centre dash, rain sensing wipers and rear parking sensors.
• Monaco ½ leather seats with colour coded bolsters
• Roof rails
• Electric Sunroof
• Load cover with safety net system
• Boot liner
• Halogen projector headlights
• Kenwood DAB head unit with aux & USB connectivity
• Full size matching alloy spare wheel
• “Hans Gauge” Constant coolant temperature display
• Towbar (used to tow a small Erde trailer)

I purchased the car in 2011 and it was my daily drive until 3 weeks ago. I have covered roughly 10000 miles / year in the car and taken it all over England and Scotland with no issues.
I have a full file of receipts of all work and parts fitted in my ownership. This year the car has had a complete new exhaust system, a complete overhaul of the rear brakes, new rear springs, rear wheel bearings, replacement of the thermostat and coolant hoses. Cam belt, water pump, Viton inlet manifold gasket with wedge washer mod and fresh coolant were done on the last service in November. Over the last 2 years I have also replaced the radiator, catalytic converter, lower engine mount, front lower suspension arms, bushes, track rod ends, drop links, ARB bushes and shock absorbers. The only bad bit is that the parking sensors are not working; I've replaced the sensors and loom, still no joy; but as I have good reversing skills (and a towbar) I have lived with it.
Any MOT advisories have always been addressed promptly. Current mileage is 136000 but apparently the previous owner fitted a new engine at round 80000; although I have no documentation of this, the engine is certainly very smooth, quiet and economical and was given a clean bill of health on its last T4 session. I keep a spreadsheet of the service history and I am happy to email this to anyone who expresses serious interest.
This is a drive it away and enjoy it car in excellent condition and has MOT until March 2016, a new MOT will be put on the car for collection subject to final selling price.

£895.00

Clutch is fine. I tow a little Erde 102 trailer for firewood / trips to the tip and it doesn't struggle.
If I'd been keeping it I would have looked at TF 135 cams and a Kmaps re-map for a bit more urge.But in real world driving it's perfectly capable as it is.

Absolute bargain for someone.

Thats an ideal car to sell to some one you know. Its had all the jobs done, lovely condition and not over priced and no complications of a turbo to worry about.
Shouldnt hang around for long looking at some of the scrap for sale on ebay at the moment.

This car will be as close to perfect as a 53 plate car can be

I challenge anyone to find a better example for under a grand

Good luck with the sale
