I finally bought a MG
 
I have finally bought my own car but could be used for work! This time it’s a MG version and a rare Monogram paint Caledonian ( only 16 in this colour in the whole range of MG Rover cars) on my way home today from Maidstone,Kent.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...da3acef5.plist

As I said on fb mate, it's fantastic and beautiful. Must make a change from the black range!

FLYING BANANA 16th March 2020 20:19

Very nice Roger. Be nice to see at some point.

Simondi 16th March 2020 20:29

Looks beautiful;)

The Rovering Member 16th March 2020 22:58

Just saw that on Farceache. A lovely set of cars, shame he's had to sell.

Astraeus 17th March 2020 07:49

Nice
 
That looks very nice indeed

YorksMG2013 17th March 2020 14:13

Raven Black 17th March 2020 19:35

Monogram
 
This is the colour I've wanted, if you want to sell please let me know first.

ZedTeeT 19th March 2020 16:59

Looks great, very different. You luck boy. ;)

LimoRog 29th March 2020 13:20

First time giving the ZTT some external TLC since bringing it back for Kent.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...585b28e2b9.jpg

Yesterday I had my seats recovered professionally with a set of genuine new black Alcantara covers I bought from a fellow member. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...3406b0542f.jpg

Nice purchase, do like that colour.

The Rovering Member 30th June 2020 20:27

Nice purple, that'd go very well with the wife's Fester. :bowdown:

I've never seen that colour in the flesh. Gorgeous.
It's a bit of a shame that MGR offered some beautiful paint choices, but so many ZTs are grey (mine included) or black. I've just looked across at our work car-park:
It's a sea of silver, grey, and black. The only colour is my green TF and a red Corsa. I'm not sure if buyers have come to think these neutral tones are somehow more 'imposing' colours for a car, or if it's worry about being different (and affecting resale)?

Caledonian
 
My most favourite colour, so wish I could have one like this.

suzublu 9th July 2020 20:12

Aldo has/had a V8 in Caledonian appropriately in Scotland:cool:

Lovely car Roger and a perfect reg to go on it :cool: is it a 180 sports auto or a CDTi auto?

With Highline sat nav I see too and electric front seats. Does it have cruise, traction control and Harmon Kardon audio as well?

Hi Paul , it’s the only 180 + Sports Auto in Caledonian , a previous owner sold the seats a put a set Manual axis ones, but I have had them recovered with a set of unused/ New Black Alcantara bought from a fellow member. No cruise or traction but but like your ZTt I have a fitted roof DVD.

Very cool Rog, :drool4: I look forward to seeing it in the flesh at some point. Has it seen a lot of action, are the miles high?

Thanks, it’s just over the 100k but was garaged for 6 years, bodywork needs attention, my Sprayshop has acquired 2 litres of Caledonian as it’s faded and waiting to go in after the Vanden Plas LWB ( currently there) and the new 6 door Limousine ( finishing off) . I will be also running it with two front bumpers, the original and a premium bumper which I can change depending on the Meet

We've never had a Caledonian on our stand at the NEC ;) assuming we ever have another Classic Motor Show......

Going to look even more stunning.

LimoRog 27th February 2021 15:12

My Caledonian ZT-T came back from the Sprayshop last week so I have managed to change the interior including Caledonian dash and steering wheel with lilac carpet and door cards along with genuine new seat covers.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...14619aa694.jpg

Simply Stunning. Well done Roger.

coolguy 27th February 2021 16:53

Looks absolutely fabulous. I know mauve cars are not that popular, but I love them - have a Daimler Super V8 in a slightly darker hue (amaranth).

Rick-sta 27th February 2021 17:26

Very nice Roger nice to see something different.
