ZT wanted!
Would love to hear from anyone with a ZT who has a nice looked after car.
Would be good to have a solar red or mettalic red one as it is a favourite colour but am open to suggestions. Selling my ZS180 hopefully as my Nikki and I have a baby on the way and something bigger and more comfortable would be great! I think my 'low rider' and racer days are over. Jim |

Your budget would help advice and type of engine you would prefer etc.

Would love a red ZT or monogram colour too.........definitely not green as it is unlucky imo. 2500 V6 manual or CDTi or 1800 Turbo but have heard lots of bad things about turbos going wrong....... A neat and tidy example would be great and the lucky car will go to a loving caring home. My current ZS180 has had ££££'s spent on it but is just too small for family needs...... Jim |

That should get you a good Mk1, which I would recommend as well. I don't think you'd get a good Mk2 for that plus the Mk1 dash is much nicer.
I paid within your range and got myself a Solar Red Mk1 with black alcantara seats, harmony head unit (factory fitted), driver intelligence pack and the full sports suspension. That spec is unusual I guess but keep an eye out for something similar. Main thing with the ZT in my opinion is to look out for upgraded seats |

Hi Jim,

Thank you all!
I could honestly do with some help finding a car............in no real rush but as you will all understand I cannot afford to buy a lemon with baby due 8-8-10............ I am only interested in the mk1 anyway which is a good thing as I like the more macho look compared to the subtle soothing lines of the mk2...... I'm up for meets for sure.........just not my womens idea of fun then again when baby is here there will be a bundle of fun Nikki will be more than happy to look after whilst I am out Jim |

Went to look at a Celestial ZT 190 this evening........guy wants £2750 for it on an 03 plate with 57k miles and blue alcantara interior and monogram dash in blue........shame the front bumper and rear bumper look 'off' colourwise and scuffs up both sides of the car with 'missmatched' paintwork............not bad but subtle enough to know someone has had a go at blowing the paintwork in.
Dunno what to do........think I got to let it go for the amount of money I need to put the bottom half of the car right plus the dreaded 'big service' with belts dude........ Jim |

I went with Jim to view this car & as he said the paintwork needs a tidy but it isn't dreadfull. Interior is very good with the blue alcantara & matching blue dash. It has big spoiler, Xenons & rear park sensors though they arn't body colour. Engine sounds & runs good. 57000 miles & 3 owners on log book. Car is sold with 1 year MOT & tax till end of September.
Forecourt price is £3295.00 but as I am in the trade he has said drive it away for £2750.00 - seems a fair price to me given the colour etc, though does need belts etc done! |
