(Gauging interest) MG ZT 120+ **SOLD**

[generic_username]

Ok, so I've recently given into the urge of a V6 and have bought a 190 - this now leaves me with a 120+ that's of no real use to me.


*** Please note, the DD unit is not included, it has been replaced with the factory KenWood cassette radio unit***

Vital stats;

- 86k mileage
- 9 Months advisory-free MOT, 3 months tax.
- MLS headgasket upgrade + Thermostat + Inlet Manifold Gasket + Cambelt + water & oil pumps at about 77k

- Injectors replaced last month.
- Was put on diagnostic machine at the same time and no errors.
- Gearbox & clutch seem fine.
- No overheating issues.
- All electrics working with no warning lights.
- Partial Service history, a good fistful of receipts.
- HPI clear - not a previous CAT C/D.


I have had reversing sensors installed and a bespoke backbox made by ProSpeed in Cardiff. It burbles and sings, however it's tasteful.











Cosmetically - 7/10 - trolley ding on driver's door near handle. Some light scuffing rear and front bumpers. The alloys would benefit from a refurbishment. I CAN INCLUDE THE BLACK GRIDSPOKES FOR AN AGREEABLE EXTRA COST.

The interior trim is in very good condition, there is miniscule wear on the driver's seat right bolster (ie, with a dab of a black sharpie-pen on the exposed white foam it's now nearly unnoticeable)





Bad points -

1) I think the fans at the front need attention. I think only the 3rd speed is working.

2) There's leaking in the boot, I believe to the left side, near the brake light. It's not a bad enough leak to make me remove the sub& amp from the boot and this is the only leak in the car.

3) Steering wheel needs an tracking recalibration to sit straight, it's off to the right by about 10 degrees at most. (this is something that would irk me as a buyer, that's why I'm including it)

4) Rear tyres are near to legal limit, tread-depth wise.


I am very open to offers and would like to see the car go to a fellow enthusiast.

The insurance is cheap, does 400 to the tank (and that's driven normally!) (and the K-series makes a fantastic whine when above 4,000 RPM)

I've looked at Adverts on Ebay and based on comparison, I'm valuing the car in the region of £1,200. Car is located in Colwyn Bay, North Wales.

Its probably been asked before but ill ask again............your number plate......how ??why???where ???

Well the plate was made by a gent recommended by the good folks on this forum. I can find his name if anyone's interested? I have to admit the YYY4NNN plate is actually a photoshop, I took it the day the backbox was fitted and didn't have the heart to just blur the plate out with some clumsy MS paint work.

A small leak has sprung near the exhaust manifold;
