Farewell to a MGZT owner

My Uncle Brian Died today

.
He was not a member on here. He never even new how to turn a pc on. He was 75, he suffered from cancer which lead to other problems, At 5 to 5 this afternoon he passed peacefully in his sleep. I had the honour of being with him when he passed on.
He was one of life's car lovers.
Among the 3 cars he had was a 2001 MGZT 2.5 v6 estate. the other 2 were Mondeo's, The ZT was his favourite.
He drove it regularly until his illness got worse, i had just aquired a new window switch for it before the tax ran out, alas he never re taxed it, but sure got me to keep the tyre pressure up, I would be lying if i said that i never admired the ZT, it is a nice car.
Why put it up on here i hear you say, because he was a ZT man and i will miss him and his very dry wit, God bless you Brian, My Mum is looking after you now.

Sorry to hear that Mick, but at least you were there to comfort him til the end.

Sounds like you were quite close, deepest sympathies on your loss.
