Loverly!!! :clap::clap::clap::clap:

Steel Blue, like mine. I love it!

Majed

I know :)
check you PMs
Great shot with the rain through the headlights. Interior must have been hard too
Well done.

I would mate but the others would just send the mobile spray man to my house with a few tins of Silver paint......

Look I've cleaned my car.
 

Hi all,

I have finally got round to cleaning my car, its amazing what 1/2 an hour do with a sponge,car shampoo and a leather and it is so satisfying to see the results at the end.

See if you can spot the postwoman spayed into my paintwork. :D

Nice Wash
 

Hi again,

Now that you washed yours , I guess I will have to wash mine again to have the same result ;) . Lovely color again, by the way :drool4:

I don't use a sponge to wash mine as it makes streaks in the paint when it slides over dirt. I use a mitt. See link herebelow from .org website for the proper way to wash the car.

http://forums.mg-rover.org/showthread.php?t=156398

Cheers,
Majed

Happy cleaning then, lets see yours afterwards.

You use a polo to clean your car, just shows it has more use than just sucking!!!!! :rofl: :rofl:

It's a mitt not a mint... :mad: I don't know how I typed this...

This is a picture when I washed her last time (1 month ago). Hoping this weekend we will have some nice weather, I'll take her for a wash just for the pics...

http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...1&d=1163185397

Majed

Ha Ha, thats a very nice example and the body looks good, I'd like to see more shots of you loverly car inside and out, I only just noticed it is a left hand drive and saw that you are from France, your English is excellent to say the least.

Regards

Ok, I promise next time I'll wash her, I will post more pics with the inside this time.
Incidentally, I come from Lebanon originally. I went there to an American high school and University. Sorry to disappoint you, I'm not the typical French guy, although I have been in France for 20 years now (with French Nationality), I kept my fluency in English and taste for good cars!
Regards,
Majed

I bet you don't see many R75's in and around Pairs, they are all Citroen's and Renaults aren't they? :D

I keep promising my old woman I'll take her to Paris one day for a dirty weekend. :romeo:

What are you waiting for? I took mine to London just before the meet in Beaulieu last May. Be sure to bring the 75 too :lol:

By the way, according to figures here, there were around 21000 75s sold in France since 1999, all motors and models included. However, there are only 3 other ones than mine in Steel Blue, of which one only is also a 2.5 V6+Auto and the rest are diesels (I was informed of these figures by one of the main dealers here)

Really? then if I come over then they will be just the two of us....;)

My big beaut.

You don't see many classics about, still its a nice example.

Colour? Here's some glorious colour for you all... :D

http://www.donottumbledry.co.uk/mg_img_bin/MG-ZT.jpg

Is that a real car? It looks like a model in a model village.

[QUOTE=Simon D;6686]Colour? Here's some glorious colour for you all... :D

Oh yes definitely a very nice shade of err um errr what colour is that? Not The S colour, even I can tell :)

Yeh, no pink fluffy dice or nappies hanging up in the background, know just what you mean:p:

Burning; huh. :)

Real car? Huff! :confused:
Its a real car. Just the background was too distracting so I edited the photo in Photoshop. So now it looks like, errr... a model car. Doh! :fishslap:

It's beautiful, does look like a model though!! :D

Only the flash reflection reveals the truth.....

OK I give in.
What colour is it?

:laughing2:

:driving:

Its red mate.

Lower end of electromagnetic spectrum. Wavelength of approximately 620–750 nm. :D

Hmmmmmm thought so :target:

Not silver then?

I was thinking that myself GG. xx

Officially, it's Solar Red.

Mind you, at the moment its Solar Red with dirty brown bits all over it. :(

Why does it always rain on my days off? :mad:

I was thinking that.

pointless asking me, afterall I can't even tell what colour your car is. :rofl:

Which begs the question... Did you intend to buy a grey car or did you think you were getting a coloured one?

Maybe it's all those years of fixing computers have slowly drained your eyes colour perception... :D :nurse:

Nah mate it's blue, well that's what the salesman said Xpowder Blue.

:nurse:

Xpowder Blue?

Is that some sort of make-up? Is there something you're not telling us? :poke:

Come on now, you really don't expect me to give away all my little secrets. Do you? :p:

Oh okay then. You win. :p:

Back to the picture of car, I'll try and get a better pic of my car up as soon as the weather clears up. No more toy car look-a-likes, I promise. :D

You do realise Scoot was just winding you up and the rest just joined in. Your car looks fabulous in that pic. If you've got the original leave the background in focus and replace the one showing.
BTW you've left a bit of blue car sticking out at the back :)

Considering I'm an avid photographer myself, I should have composed the shots much better but seeing as they weren't meant to artistic then I didn't really set them up much.

My next attempts will be much more thoroughly composed and executed ;)

Just so I can have another gratiatous shot of my car on the forums, here's another (unedited bar cropping and number plate removal) photo from the day I spent four hours cleaning my car.... Enjoy!

http://www.donottumbledry.co.uk/mg_i.../IMG0310_2.jpg

Now that's a real car!

Toy one in the background though or was that "composed" for effect

What's not too like? That's a cracking car. Bet that would look ominus in the rear view mirror on the outside lane on the motorway.

Mirror full of ZT Mk1 does look the business, even when you are driving one as well :)

Or just Blue? did someone say no Bikes?

You can never go wrong with this little BLACK number :drool4:

Sfunny, right at the top it says Pics of my CAR

I'm practically blind, but where I come from even the terminally stupid can tell most cars have 4 wheels, some have 3 but never 2. (Some Bikes have 3 but they are just silly):) Very silly :lol:

Please post the 2 wheeled monstrosities into the newly created thread in the social forum. My Motorbike and other 2 wheeled monstrosities.

Ta

Willdo......actually car was there but I deleted it as I hadnt blanked the reg number out..... but dont worry being a humble obedient member of the club I will obey forthwith.;)

Thanks Jamie, just trying to keep this one down to cars. Plenty of room for bikes and roller skates in the other thread. :)

Silver.. what else?
 

There aren't enough silver cars in this post :drool4:

http://www.lazyproductions.com/images/Hot.jpeg

I've always liked midnight blue cars myself - but I have to admit this 'silver 75/ZT campaign' is beginning to have an effect...............

Hi Guys I have just subscribed, and would love to get your opinions on my car, but I have no idea how to put a picture on. i tried putting it in my avatar but the link seemed to be down

Lets get back to Silver cars - heres mine
 

Now how do I get it bigger !!!!!!!!! OOOOO RRRRRR Missus

Simon D - nice car. Lovely colour.

Now that is a sexy photo.....light is perfect.

Not sure if this will work but I will give it a go

OK, think I've cracked it.

http://www.jimmcglynn.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/zt/zt7.jpg

Here's my baby ( not silver but close)

Some nice cars on here, Jim i love the red :)

Oooo another 180, love red, mines same car but small spoiler (and its Grey)
That make 2 of us on here now.

Thats at least 3 of us because mines a 180 as well! Excellent cars!

Regards, Dave

Apologies Dave, I was thinking Mk1. Stiil very rare cars. especially in this country. We had an XPG Mk2 on org as well, so we may end up with quads. :),
Fantstic motors.

In all her glory:drool4:

Yeah, I've always said "I'd never buy a red car"

That was, of course, until I bought my lovely red car :drool4:


See you've also got a lovely red car too. Was yours a carefuly considered well-planned buy or, like me, did you see it and go "Ooohhh - I want one of those!" :D

Just when the little 75 thought it was safe to go back in the water a big Black Shark started circling.......................

http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...1de25eb2fd.jpg

Paranoid..... going back a few pages, where was your photograph taken on the beach?

Cantabro, that is a really smart looking car!

Love the fold-down trays in the rear and the wooden trim on the doors underneath the windows. :lol:

WOW! :clap:

That looks really cool! Any chance of a few more closer up pics?

Look at all that wood, looks a great job there :)

Love the wood, not sure about the wood on the window sills. still very nice.

That's a fantastic job you've done there!

Alhough I probably wouldn't buy a car with brown wood in it, I must say from an artwork perspective and as a piece of automotive mastercraftsmanship that you have done an excellent job on fitting the picnic trays and the extra wood trim.

Worthy of a prize any day! :drool4:

Nice work there :lol: did the health and safety bunch in the UK kill off picnic tables in cars a while back? or did I dream that :) I do think i read somewhere that they reckoned they would cause severe injury in a crash.... like erm... rear headrest tv screens won't :rolleyes:

looks an absolute snorter, well done.

Fantastic job, you are very talented. If you fancy popping over England you could do mine! John.

clever boy..looks very good

Thanks all
John Philips if i go ( not on bussines trip!!) i would like to do something on your contemporary :) whats about a similar look to a Bentley Arnage Red label with black Oak and aluminiun on the dash?:), door capings and aluminiun picnic trays sorrunded by black Oak?? its just a Joke!;) ..or not:D

Now that sounds really smart :clap:

I would like black oak around window switches front and rear as well :D

this be mine :)

Finally got mine clean enough (I think)

http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...wimages&id=394

The inside looks nice. I have the Lo Line also. Where did you buy the wooden finish from?

Here's my little beauty

[QUOTE=biggee;12022]a pic of my new born twins ! what do you think tow bar or no tow bar ?

Thanks madone


The Wood kit is from TOC Panels in Peterborough and if I ever get around to it, Henry, the owner says he can measure my dash and make specials for the radio and low-line Nav controls, so they are totally surrounded instead of just the outline as it is now, so it will look like the heater control panel.

Not sure about the price now, but you get the following in the kit.

Heater panel
Radio/Navigation panel
Sport/Ice button surround (Auto)
Light Switch
All four window switches
Rear Ashtray

thats always been the reason i don't get this kit...what would it take to go round the buttons and print a few words on them?...ruins an otherwise stonkin kit:(

Henry at TOC just needs someone to go round with their car so he can take measurements. Do you have a low-line system too?

Went a tootle up the local cemetary this morning took a few pic of the 75.......Before anyone asks, its very peacefull, some great views, and the guy who looks after the church has go a 75 so no one minds.

In an effort to keep the spread of silver cars down here are my two nice blue ones! :lol: Ok so they weren't mega clean when I took the pictures, but I thought it was past time I posted them onto this thread. I would have put them in as nice big images like others seem to have done, but I haven't a clue how to.:confused: At least they are in the gallery now anyway.
Merry Christmas to one and all!

That looks like a ubbo sales picture from bytbil.com.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Im new to this site so ...hi everyone...I'll back up whatever I'm backing up with a non silver 75.......

Nice Compositions Mirhir2002.... good looking car too....:D

Nick.

Thanks Nocturnal. I sat in it today after many weeks of being at Uni and I must say I missed that V6 note. Lovely.

That'll be the three or four hours of lovingly cleaning and polishing it then ;)

Yep... my car is damn sexy. :drool4: :cool2::driving:

my god that red - nice car

heres some pics that made my blood boil
 

hopefully some proper pics tomorrow, if it isnt too cold :(
but heres a couple of clickables, that made my blood boil....on the street outside my house...

this has happened 3 times in the month I've had the car....
It must be attractive to other cars cos they love to get real close....

Nick

That happened to us just off Oxford St a couple of hours ago...two cars sandwiched us in and it took my mum a good 10 mins of forward and backing to get the car out...some people are idiots.

After 10 mins of shunting around on full lock, your mum will probably need some new front tyres too.

London + 190 bhp through the front wheels = tyres for breakfast. :cry:

No No tell you how to cure idiots like that..........I used to live by a T&at like that, it went on for nearly 6 months the bumper of my 416 was permanently at a funny nudged angle, till one day I rolled the car back and planted my size ten at the point his bumper touched mine, Don't know how much Mondeo bumpers are but it never happened again, don't think he realized he had touched me. Please note I am not a vandal or a bully but enough was enough.

OK, I know the first message in the thread suggested we should wash and polish our cars and THEn take pics of it. Well, I did it the other way round, thought I'd show you how my 75 Tourer looks right now. Better get it washed after Christmas!

http://www.the75andztclub.co.uk/foru...d58663518c.jpg

Still, I think it has its charms also when really muddy and dirty. More dirty pictures in my gallery.

thats better! polishing's for wusses. we need some with chainsaws and dead stags hanging out of the rear tailgate hatch...?

the pic of the the car outside the cemetery is a bit ironic....:D leave pipe and slippers at the door....
