Re: MG ZT-T 260 Mini-review.

"Carl Gibbs" gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying:

Unfortunately, unless I get a pretty stonking payrise, I'll have to wait > a few years too.

I can't decide if I'm surprised at how well the values are holding up, or how cheap they are.

14 ZTs, one ZT-T and 3 Rover v8s on Autotrader at the mo - from £8,500ish. Why the Rovers seem to be a couple of grand (or more - but I suspect the £16k one is going to be unlucky...) pricier than the MGs, though, is beyond me.

The transmission tunnel is wider at the firewall, this is due to the bigger engine and gearbox. This means that on manuals there's not much space for your feet and the pedals are a bit close together, ISTR no footrest either. The Rover versions had everything in them as standard and were mostly autos, which suits the V8 well.

Must admit for me it'd be a manual ZT saloon, and shares in a tyre fitter.

The Evo 10 is quite nice tough I've only ever seen one so far. Imprezas aren't lookers and they don't drive half as well as there fanboys like to make out.

Went to Cardiff today to pick up a Focus. Normally we'd have used something mega cheap to run and gone the motorway route, something 'orrible like the LPG Vectra Estate we've used for the last couple of weeks, after all, making money is the name of the game.

Instead, we took the ZT-T down the A483 / A470, but it was worth it.

Averaged a mightily impressive 23 mpg as well.. well, impressive compared to most 4.6 V8s driven with enthusiasm.

Somewhat perturbingly, I agree with pretty much everything he says in that, but I still want one, badly.
