My old ZT turned up on Flickr
 
While doing a bit of Googling earlier, I started putting my old and current car reg numbers in out of curiosity.

Low and behold my previous ZT turned up!

According to the MoT history check, it's last MoT expired on my birthday in 2019...no advisories on last couple of tests.

That was a great car - only let down by the booming exhaust that gave me headaches on each trip...

It never even had an advisory in my ownership! I fear it may be gone! Shame really as it was a Connie with all the toys and leather and was in perfect nick when I sold it!


My current 75 is six years older and still going strong and also has never had an advisory in my ownership!:shrug:
