Hi and welcome to the club, bet you can't wait to pick that beauty up and in one of my favourite colours, and with the Monaco interior, the 190 sounds great too when it gets over 3000rpm so enjoy and keep posting, but did you know that the steering wheel is on the wrong side

I've in mind some mods, that are (in chronological order): - stainless steel exhaust V8 style (I've already go the right headshield) - large boot spoiler (already bought in my paint tone from a UK seller on ebay) - lowering springs (the only i found were on motobuild, any suggest?) - front spoiler lip (Laguna or Leon Cupra R, I've to decide) - sideskirts and rear bumper side pods (motobuild) - 2DIN stereo units (I'm thinking to buy it from user Radioguy) |

Car
Must admit that looks like a very tidy car. Really does suit the colour, especially with the Blue Monaco interior. I have two one in black and one in Trophy Blue, and have monaco seats in both, and they suit the car.
Good luck and happy motoring. You will be the envy of a lot of motorists, in their standard euroboxes Stu |

Great looking car, in the best colour too. It will be interesting to see pictures of your mods as you install them. Welcome to the club.

Welcome to the club
I would be interested to know the history of the car and and how you came to take ownership, and what support facilities you are able to use to keep the car on the road. It is fascinating to see 75's and MG ZT's still being driven all around the world. People in the UK are fortunate to have easy access to buy these cars and to find the parts. I have not found one MG ZT or Rover 75 in Kenya. I am off to South Africa in a couple of days where there are plenty. Parts are hard to get, despite this. Maybe some people buy a spare one and keep it just for parts. I do not know. Have you seen many 75's or ZT's in Italy? |

The story of this ZT is incredible! it has been directly used by MG ROVER in Roma, then stopped for 7 years in the dealer showroom (very high price for this model car in my country, also petrol engine is not required in my country), 2 years ago the price was considerably reduced and I try to buy it, but I decided too late and the car was sold to others! Few days ago I see a sale advertisement from the previous owner and this time I buy it immediately! thanks |

Thanks for run down on the cars in Italy and an achievement that you were able to buy this very popular car and how it had been in the showroom all of those years. Happy days and happy motoring.
