Boot Hill Bandit is on a distinguished road
ZS180 hatch in solar red.

Car has done 93k miles but belts have already been done as well as loads of other work (please read below) don't be put off by the higher mileage as it has had an engine change and runs silky smooth and no smoking. Recent oil service a month or so ago before I parked her up on the drive. Oil used is stuck on the underside of parcelshelf

It has air con, Red Monaco seats, 17" straight alloy wheels, front foglamps and a sunroof too. It also has Infinity Reference speakers front and back and a Sony CDX headunit too with MP3/MP4 socket under the gear gaitor out of sight, out of mind!

Just to mention the work that has been done to this car......

Engine change in 2007 along with a rebuilt PG1 Quaiffe ATB LSD gearbox (approx ?1500 spent including having it fitted), Janspeed exhaust manifolds (?500) and Piper cat back exhaust system (?400), Genuine MG Rover clutch, Genuine MG Rover belts and tensioner done and waterpump and thermostat, plenum (?500), air conditioning re gased!!!!!!!

Since then it has also had......... brand new seat covers fitted 6 months ago and the thick piled carpet cleaned and dyed black to make it look fresh and more up to date, one off custom gear gaitor, red Monogram steering wheel, Mintex brake pads and discs all round at Christmas 2009 (?150), Superflex polybushes all round (?900), Motobuild lowering springs (?140), 4 nearly new Yokohama Paradas, probably lots of other little bits I have forgotten about too.

This car is much loved by me..........I wouldn't say it is immaculate as it isn't. It is however in very good condition for age and no expense has been spared! I have put a lot of TLC into the car as well as money and I'm sure it is a complete bargain for peeps out there!

You won't find many other cars out there with all the work I have done to it for silly money.

I have removed the tax from the car as it was just ticking away sat on my drive. It does however have several months MOT left on her.













Just to add, the signwriting has been removed without any issues and no fading signs........the picture of the silver dash and centre console was done very early on when I had the car........the seat covers are now brand new and the carpet no longer dirty and grey......it is black

?1200


Just to add that my MG ZT190+ in solar red is also for sale should you be looking!

Here's the thing, yep folk can throw in a cheap offer see if anyone is desperate enough to get rid of their car and the buyer grabs a billy bargain. Post up this on a forum folk can see the nice low price and question it if they like thats the way the world rolls. Breaking this car would of course get the best return but personally i would like to see it stay whole but this depends if a buyer comes along who see's the car and it's parts for what they are really worth tbh.

As for reliability Personally this car has a greater chance of running at a greater reliability than most tbh due to the work it has had done in the past to remedy the poor reliability it used to suffer from. So looking at it it really is less of a risk tbh

Thanks for that dude I appreciate it! Yes indeed it has been unrelaible but all niggles have been fixed regardless often with genuine MG Rover parts or uprated parts not the cheaper pattern parts!

For the amount of work done on it I would genuinely be shocked if something went wrong in the near future.

Anyway..........as most have pointed out...........it is a bargain and I would like it gone to a good home. The lucky person who buys it won't be disappointed.

Provisionally sold to a good home

Many thanks to you all people.........shame I have let it go for such a low price but I would sooner see it being used and enjoyed than sitting in a garage until my kids grow up.
