Very nice Ken, almost as striking as the Coupe

I'm also in a 190 now, although with LPG as I'm still racking up a few miles, might be worth considering for your Spain trips?

BTW, don't know if you're still hanging out on the 800 forum but the Coupe has now got a new owner, funnily enough Phil who was the chap looking round it at Bromley!

Hi James,

Yes still hang aound the 800 forum and rovertech.net, saw the pics of your 190 on 800 forum! Very nice
I saw the post on our old Vitty Coupe and was glad to see she ended up with another enthusiast.

Yep, I'd have been gutted if the Coupe had been broken

Sadly 75's and ZT's now have the same problem as the 800's in so much as they are both worth so little that quite often perfectly nice examples are broken rather then being repaired.

Clean again and sitting on her new straights..






Off to see Lates within the next few weeks for belts and water pump change, although there is a note in service book that belts have been done there is no supporting paperwork so for piece of mind I'm biting the bullet!!!

Gorgeous. Definitely my favourite 75 / ZT colour. Would have loved a ZT-T that colour.

Superb colour.
Shame MGR didn't make more in Copperleaf.
Possibly another reason for their demise not listening to what their customers really wanted.

There was always a shortage of Nightfire Red in the 400 800 series too!
Oh well enjoy.

that looks great mate, and the alloys look fab .

do you have xenons and door finishers planned for the future as i think that would finish the look of the car off

All the best

Thanks for all the kind comments guys! I know a lot of people prefer the hairpins, but I've always preferred the straights, must be an optical illusion, but they look bigger on the car than the hairpins did??

Xenons are definately something I'll be doing soon, but no plans for door finishers.
