Default twilight Mg zt 190

Evening all thought I would post a couple of pictures of my monogram ZT 190. I bought this last year from the second owner as the ulez was forcing it out. It had done fairly low miles at just under 55000 with a cam belt change just before I bought it. its not a perfect car it has lacquer peel on the spoiler and chrome door trims but its perfect as my daily. I've done 12000 miles in the last year in it and apart form service items its been great. cheers Ryan

Lovely colour. Not many cars are absolutely perfect to start with. It just takes time to get them to what you want.

thank you I'm hoping over the next few months to sort the spoiler out I'm looking at having it hydro dipped rather than repainted same with the side chromes as the paint is starting to peel off in spots

thank you I always really liked the colour this one seems a little odd as it has a lot of green in the flip of the paint I never expected it to come up for sale I was originally looking for a 190 tourer but when it popped up I had to have it!

Lovely colour Ryan and sorry to hear about the spring (I've had that too).

I just wanted to ask if your V5C Registration certificate includes a figure for NOx emissions and if so, what it is? It's worth checking as there's a lot of misleading talk around regarding the London ULEZ.

Hi Simon I've heard springs are quite common on my previous diesel one it was the rears that broke. I've just had a look on the v5 it unfortunately doesn't haven't NOx figure just the Co2 at 344. the person I bought it off was selling it on behalf his mum as apparently they were putting a ulez camera at the bottom of her drive she had it from 2 years old
