Great thread this... Mine was 26,150 new , and paid £1200 for it .. :}

I've worked mine it out for my ZT:

ZT+ 135 CDTi Turbo Automatic (131Ps) £21,235

Alcantara £625
Metallic paint £450
Xenon pack £625
18" Straightts £225
Driver's Intelligence Pack £425
Cruise Control £250
Rear wing spoiler £275
Highline Sat Nav inc. TV £2,325
Electric sunroof £550

Total list price £26,985!

Ouch! I paid little over 5% of that with the car not even 10 years old.

£25890 new......bought and fully repaired to passing MOT standard for the princely sum of £273. OK so it has its faults and rough edges but all minor and nothing affecting its roadworthiness.

My recently purchased ZT cost £31,310 new.

Nine years later, I paid the equivalent of 3.6% of its original selling price when I bought it.

So Ed was £23,310 new and I paid £900 for him including a Private Plate worth £400! :eek:

Thanks, well worth the extra few £'s in my opinion :D

Happy..
 

I just worked out my spec and it's a Connie...All wiring done as per factory, seats and things added as per factory.
I've done the head gasket to be certain, and with all the bits I've put on, it stands me at £450. It won't mean a thing in money terms when I pass it on to my Dad in favour of the ZT. I'm just happy to be driving the quietest 75 on the road for that money.

Banana was £23,000 new but the first owner paid £17,000 as the car had paint issues on the 4 wings. These were eventually put right at Longbridge after 4 attempts to get the paint right.
