Look forward to hearing about it! Won’t be long till you get it modified I imagine.
Cheers Callum,
How are you getting on with yours?
I really like the zt platform, even with a diesel engine would make a great daily and if you like your toys plenty of options to retro fit.
At the moment it's pretty much standard SE spec so all the toys. Custom back boxes which look stock and that's it. Other than keeping it in too condition I don't have any real plans for it, I've got the 2 ZSs and 45 to tinker with.
That said, a supercharger would be a good winter project for next year, well see I guess .

If you really were pressed about the Renault - what didn't you like?

Seating position, visibility out, sound of the squeaks and rattles (more or less than an old MG?) etc?

There's always something - I really don't like my mum's MKI TT; find it so claustrophobic and I think visibility out is appalling too.
Honestly, very little I didn't like about the Renault. It was just a bit modern and mainstream. I've wanted a v8 zt for years and can't really explain why, they are slow, thirsty, parts are a nightmare to source and developed on a shoe string budget. It has something in bucket loads though which is so hard to find, charm... and a sound to die for!

No, that silver one has been for sale for months. Pov spec and I didn't fancy another silver MG. Plus doesn't look in great condition on the pics.
I did speak with the guy selling the supercharged one but 126k miles and from looking of the 260 site it was sold in March last year for £8000 with an untraceable mechanical noise.. the previous owner replaced all sorts including the gearbox to no avail so sold it cheap. The guy selling it said there is no issue. Sounds like a bit of a gamble so avoided it.
I've bought a black mk2 SE with 66k on the clock, enthusiast owned. It's a gooden to keep in the garage.
