Monogram Colours
 
What monongram colours have you seen on a ZS?
I've seen Orange grove which is a stunning colour..... twice...one of those really strange things, on the same day! (one a hatch, the other a saloon, so definitely not the same car!)
I'll hopefully be seeing 200Bubs's ZS tonight (typhoon)
Aint seen any other monograms on ZSs which is a shame....

I've seen Ralphs Twilight in the flesh very nice indeed.
I've also seen that light blue colour before.....can't think of its name though :no:

If someone could find the pictures of the monogram colour cars and stick over here it would be fairly useful. I can't think of where I have seen them though.

Either MGRover.org or XPF have pics of almost all (if not all) the models in every colour. :)

EMS did (or maybe still do) have one in Auroura (sp?). Is that Monogram?

Yes they do thats Andy's ZT-T which is stunning!

We had a ZS in Mirage at our Open Day in 2006. I've also seen ZSs in Typhoon, Poseidon, Twilight (obviously!), Celestial and Orange Grove.

SMC in High Wycombe had a MK2 ZS 180 saloon in Aurora with a custom black leather interior about 18 months ago (but no extreme spoiler :sad:). Apparently it used to be in the visitor centre at Longbridge.

Its little stories like that that make the MG Rover brand so interesting!

I was only saying to Ralph (seems I talk to Ralph a lot I know :laugh: )

If NAC ensured that each new garage had a different monogram ZS (or 7 or whatever) customers would truly be able to appreciate how nice they look in real life. One of the best photos yet of a monogram colour car is Steves ZS 180, as it does give a good hint as to what the car really looks like.

Seeing a car like that I am sure many people with a strong budget would have parted a little extra money than normal.
