2003 mg ztt land speed record car

Tree hugger · 29th October 2018, 14:32

This is probably old news but I discovered this ZTT for sale on the web last night. So I droped them an email as to the asking price of the above car.

Well I new it was going to be a lot but how much.??

£200,000 will buy this car which is a lot of money but still a bargain I think

For £200k you could build a faster one surely, the engine is fairly unremarkable, 765bhp is easily achievable now days.

Bonkers price. You can buy a 4 bed detached house up our way for that.

I love how the info reads,' virtually stock' , then goes onto list everything below the body panels. None of which I recall seeing or reading about on any stock zt/ztt lol .

a BMW M5 tourer will get close de-restricted, probably more tuned and would be less than 30k.
good for its time, old hat now...

You could probably get a new Venus de Milo down your local garden centre for a couple of hundred quid that would do everything the original can but it would still only be worth a couple of hundred quid. With things like this it's all about the provenance not whether or not you can find something that does the same job. It's not as if anyone will be planning on doing 260mph round the M25.

Power is great and addictive in a way but I fail to see the importance of a production car using this power to anywhere near its potential in the uk. acceleration in the mid range is where it is used mostly in daily driving but top end and standing start is pointless unless you have a handy race track or salt flat to use it on.

Well, I have the base model, just needs a bit of paint and a few stickers.............
