Rover V8 front on a ZT-T?!!
Spotted on the M6 on Saturday, turned off at Cannock.
One question - what the hell???!!! Was definately a standard ZT-T given the rear and the tailpipes! |

Crash damage repair prehaps, or my immediate thought, cut and shut!

Hmm sounds nice, love to see how they blend in the MG motif.

Could also be that MG Front bumpers are short supply or were at the moment.
MK1 and MK2 Rover Types readily available. (other than V8 full) ...and after re reading most probably because the V8 Rover bumper looks so much better than the MG one! |

are you sure it was a tourer as I live just outside Cannock and there is a zt dressed as a v8 around, I'm sure it's a V6 though???I'll keep my eyes open, what colour was it?:lol:

Absolutely certain! Looked very weird with a ZT/75 hybrid design! It was behind me, overtook only slightly faster than me, and we came off the Cannock exit of the M6 in unison and around 2 roundabouts.

If this is thecar i'm tinking it is, it was for sale about 12 months ago at shareshill car sales, only a couple of miles from cannock. The sales man there told me it was a company directors car that he had from new.
It was a 2.o cdti with the v8 bumper and was grey, it had half leather but a plus pack as had parking sensors, trip, auto mirror, and rain sensors Might be the same one Andrew
