Exactly... people want a well sorted car for peanuts but that just wont happen. The truth is these cars arent worth anything.. uneconomical, getting old, and not so practical for a daily drive I guess

£900 for these items that's ludicrous Phil, you could have bought a spare car for that.

... ain't that the truth, its a shame the same is not reflected in the price of repairs.

I'm facing a £900+ clutch repair bill, and if I were to be realistic, that is all the car is worth, even though the car is in superb condition (I might as well go buy another ZT).

The only time these cars will be worth any value, is when they are 30+ years old, its the same format as with all the old classics.

Phil your car looks the absolute business. Im on the lookout at the moment but with a wee baby currently my budget is NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD-NAUGHTY WORD- and im looking at 6-700 quidders. Ive drooled and better drooled on your car but even at 9 its beyond me... im up near edinburgh so itd be 11 by the time i came down and drove it back and i just cant justify pushing to that. Id be on beans for a month 😂

i seriously dont understand why its not sold!

I have no clue about the car market in the UK because i live in the Netherlands.


But let me tell you Phil..... people in the Netherlands would easely pay 2-3k euros for your car!
Its in very good condition for its age.

I paid 4k for my R75 2 years ago(it was in good condition 129k Kilometers + expensive AEZ rims )

The thing is your car probably wont be sold outside of the UK because of the steering wheel being on the wrong side .


Good luck selling it! And please dont go under 1k...... thats just ridiculous.

You are literally correct my friend

However for the rest of the world LEFT is the "right" side for the steering wheel.
