I've been thinking about this for a while but sadly my nearest LPG garage closed down a while ago which means that I have to now go quite a way out of my way to get gas so I'm now thinking of swapping my ZT-T for a diesel one :(
I bought my car from Tam (Rotrex) back in 2011. He bought it as a project (see link) (http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=94921) and did a lot of work to get it into very good condition. It was a hell of a trip from Norwich to buy it but very worthwhile as not only did I get a beautiful ZT-T but I also had the privilege of spending a few hours with Tam chatting about the cars we love.
Anyway back then it had 73,000 miles on and after having much time and money spent on it by Tam it was in amazing condition. I'm glad to say that other then having a few more miles on it now (around 85,000) it's still in pretty much the same condition. During the last 18 months it's performed flawlessly and in all that time other then tyres, brakes and servicing i've not had to spend much on it at all.
Other then the LPG conversion which puts a tank in the spare wheel well the car is pretty much standard. It does have a bluetooth compatible head unit which works with the steering wheel controls however I would like to keep that but depending on what's offered I would consider leaving it in the car. It's the + model so full climate control etc and everything works as it should! It's currently MOT'd until around November however I have no doubts that it will pass easily so I could put a full year on if required.
So what am I looking for? Basically a ZT-T CDTi that's been equally loved and maintained. At the very least it much have working climate control (as mine does!) however I would also love to gain cruise control, which mine doesn't have. I'm very open minded when it comes to colour and even gearbox, I would prefer a manual but would consider an auto.
Distance isn't a problem for me either, I only change cars every year or 2 so having to travel to get the right car is fine.
Although I would like to change to a diesel for connivance I'm not looking forward to loosing the 'V6 experience' so I won't be offering my car for sale, but if the right straight exchange comes up it would make sense for me now.
Anyway onto the pics!
