Build information
 
Hi guys


The link for the information ref when my ZT was built, spec ... seems to have gone
Does it still exist anywhere else?

Hi Shaun, PM me your car's VIN number and I'll look it up for you from the club's build records database ;)

Rumours are the information was bought some time ago by the MG Owners Club, it has never resurfaced.

Now that the info site is down, wouldn't it be an idea to draw in members if this resource was available to perhaps subscribed members on this site?

Believe the 75 & ZT enthusiasts had VIN available to "members only", why not here?

Regards

Be a hell of a lot of work to set up.

Would it? I don't know. Just an idea, let’s see what Reebs replies. If the Enthusiasts can manage it then why not? Perhaps the info Reebs has is digitised and we have some IT people on here who could possibly help.

The sad thing is I believe the guy who I think developed it for the Enthusiasts used to be on here, but moved on as so many others have done, during a period of turmoil on here.

Wishing ...

I heard that as well - but in the past they have been pretty disdainful of the MGR 75/ZT so why would they be interested ? - I used to be a member and left for that reason - saying that though the view of the MG ZT/ZR/ZS cars seemed to be changing to a more positive view. :shrug:

The club was given the build data on the understanding that it was made available to members on a one to one basis, that’s why we offer it via PM only if a member requests their car to be searched.

The website that is no longer up was set up some time after by another party and is nothing to do with us.

You don’t need to be a red subscribed member to get your build info, all members can ask, but please bear in mind that as with the other website, a batch of later Cowley build Rover 75s are missing from the database, so some cars will be missing.

All Longbridge built cars are listed including V8s, tourers and all ZT however. :)
