Dover White MGZT 1.8T 55 plate on market place,it would be interesting to see the build data

Sellers description

have for sale something a bit different and special in the MG ZT world, what is thought to be the last remaining Dover white ZT (of 33 made) and being a very late model a possible euro 4 emissions development car (notice the different coolant expansion tank location and the fly by wire throttle). 1.8 turbo petrol.

I bought it just over a year ago and I’ve spent a fair bit of money bringing up to scratch. It’s had a visit to Tom Force who sorted the head gasket (it had been replaced but with the wrong type so it didn’t seal properly) and various other bits and bobs. It’s had a full front suspension replacement, lower engine mount, a/c condenser and compressor, replacement steering rack (2nd hand), rear wheel bearings amongst other things and I’ve fitted electric / heated Alcantara seats too. Aftermarket parking sensor kit fitted but not wired up.

Only 56k on the clock, MOT until end Sept 2021. Lovely to drive.

I've never seen a white ZT in the flesh.
I am partial to white cars!

Trouble is, driving around in a white car, everyone's going to think you're a mini-cab.

It may be a personal thing, but I think Dover white is too bright, I much prefer Arran white on our cars.
