My MG ZS280

Hi all, not sure if I've ever introduced myself on here. But I'm sure you'll of heard of me!

I'm Nathan, the owner of the Tank. That Camo Rover 200...




But anyway, enough of that old thing. I've been looking for a ZS for near on two years now. Originally wanting a Monogram, either Twilight or Sunspot. The search was near impossible.

Then a couple of weeks back the ZS280 came up for sale, which I'm sure you'll have also heard about. Although not a Monogram, it was exactly what I was wanting. Perfect in every way.

Massive step up from the Rover, love it to pieces! The effort and dedication from the previous owner is incredible.

The only plans I have for it upto now are to put a set of genuine mats in it, take the metal pedal covers off, remove the 280 badges off the wings, and have a set of ZS rims in antracite for the winter.

Here's the photos I've got of it upto now...
