*** SOLD ***

Registered on 26/06/2003 this is on a 03 plate. I am the third keeper and she had only done 71256 miles at time of creating advert. It is unlikely to increase greatly though.
I have owned her for over six years now but I have now bought another car and hence she is for sale.
The car is in good condition and comes with MOT until March 2014 and tax until 09/13
I have maintained the car myself and so there's limited service history. I do have the original service book and the stamps are there for the first three services.
Unfortunately there is nothing to suggest that the cam belt has been done. I know I haven't done it but I made that decision that if I had the money spare I would but that didn't happen and thought if it goes then I would put a replacement engine in because I would have to! Maybe I'm a bit to pragmatic...
It also comes with reversing sensors.
The car has been tastefully upgraded without detracting from the original guise.

It comes with Rover 45 headlights.
The exhaust back box is a Janspeed X Power one.
It also has a Janspeed decat fitted (this has not caused any issues with emissions tests) I can provide the original cat pipe too and I have fitted my own MIL eliminator to the pipe.
Mk 2 alloys - some kerbing from when I purchased them.
Citroen screen mist washers.
I have also fitted the clutch upgrade Sheddist kit.
All four tyres have a reasonable life left in them.
Alpine CD head unit along with sub and amp.
I have also painted the engine cover and fuse box to match the exterior paint.
Finally there is an Piper X induction kit fitted. I can also supply original air box.
It does have the odd mark but it is nearly 10 years old now.
The car looks even better in the flesh and polishes up beautifully.

I do not need a part exchange so please don't offer.

Any questions give me a PM.

This a lot of car for not a lot of money and will bring a smile to your face especially with the exhaust note!

It is for sale elsewhere at a higher price.

I will also be changing oil and filter, hopefully in the next day or so.

She's not perfect but drives well. I have repaired the heater fans but air con doesn't blow cold and this needs servicing. I can't think of anything else at the moment.

If there is no interest in her as she is then I will be removing some parts and returning her close to standard.

If I could keep her as a track car project I would but in all honestly I don't think she would get used enough. :(

I have changed the oil and filter today.
Recent service history includes the following.

Rear nearside caliper replaced with new one as it had seized 28/03/13
New front discs and pads 24/01/12
CV Joint boot kit replaced 16/11/12

I also have the original owners handbook and would throw in the Haynes manual too.

What parts would you be removing to put it back to standard?

I will see if the car sells within a week or so but failing that I will be looking at removing some parts.

The Mk2 alloys have now gone to a new home but have been replaced with some black sparkle Mk1 straights.
There's still reasonable life in the tyres and I actually like them a lot. Maybe the yello centres may not be to everyones taste on a TB body but if i was keeping her now I would paint the calipers yellow and get black / yellow MG badges for bonnet and boot.

The buyer is not called Kitch.

He came over with his friend who has a TY 180 saloon with black straights.

They weren't on the forum either but I have pointed them in this direction.

Congraitulations with the sale Martyn i'm glad you were able to sell her on Monday. The black alloys on a TB ZS do look good. I see what you mean about the ride differance with the MK2 alloys, i actualy think my ZS rides better now with the MK2's fitted and looks the part.:smile1:
