Yup - I checked out 'How many left' for UK figures and there's not so many (though quite unreliable figures on there I believe).
Over here I know there's another 180 auto down South and a few 190 ZT'S and ZT-T's but I'd love to know how many..... 🤔

There's at least one on Dunedin - my son had a chat to the owner a couple of weeks ago.

That is certainly a lovely looking car - one to be proud of. If you need any parts I would recommend having a word with DMGRS here in the UK - look up their web site. Another parts supplier is Rimmers. Am aiming for another NZ trip in a year or so once this Covid stuff is sorted so might even take a look at your car myself!
Keep using this club - it's the best around for help / guidance from like minded people who know just how good these cars are. You might also benefit from joining the MG Owners Club (MGOC) since they too can supply parts and also have an excellent technical advice service.
Your cars paint work looks splendid but , personally , if I were starting off with a good car and wanted it to last , one of the first things I would be to fully treat the underbody and cavities with rust killer and long term protection such as Waxoyl or Dinitrol.
All the best.
