Why so cheap?
MG ZT+ 2.5 V6 August 18th MOT good running car
August 2017 MOT Runs really well, bodywork is in good condition, as is the interior, £250 O.V.N.O https://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-...ource=whatsapp At face value this looks unmissable! So, why so cheap? Low miles, nothing scary in mot checker. Prob no history but I wouldn't trust papers for an old car anyway, a good look around can often tell you more. Clutch on the way out maybe?

I dont reckon its clutch on that low mileage.
70,991 miles £250 OVNO for a low mileage early MK1, its worth that all day long. Allow a few hundred quid for the MOT, it if sails through, you have yourself a bargain. Most probably the common coolant loss thermostat problem that has the owner thinking the worst. |

I was toying with the idea of hairpins. This set comes with a free car!
Wonder if it's a 160 or 190? It's in my town....... same colour as my last one..... miss that car....... I'd be sleeping in it if I brought it home...... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Nice colour also, £200 would probably buy it, just shows these cars are still at there lowest point price wise and have been for a long time

Go on Coups you know it makes sense, it will be quite warm in the car at this time of year anyway.

Offer £200, the Hairpins are worth £150 to £200 if tyres are good. I wouldn't want to break-it though, the mileage is low and certainly worth maintaining. If it were local to me, it would be gone by now. |
