Hi Guys,

I am trying to get some Pearl black paint for the ZT but I don't seem to be able to find any, Halfords don't list it and offered me the very useful advice of
"maybe you could ring Rover mate"

to which I replied
"I would but they no longer exist"
to which he replied
"oh yeah didn't someone take them over"
to which I replied
" yes BMW"
he then said
"well ring them then"
to which I replied
"they don't own MG anymore"
to which he replied
"well who owns them now then"
to which I said
"well they are owned by a Chinese company"
to which he said
"well ring them then"
to which I said
"do you know what, I think I will leave it thanks"

Where the hell do they get these people from?

Anyway back to the original point of, does anyone know where to buy it from?

Thanks guys.

Ian

I personally recommend http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/hugspaint/

They have mixed up Typhoon, British Racing Green 3 , and Royal Blue for me. All have been an excellent match IMHO.
