I'll have a dig around, I'm sure this car has appeared on one of the mgr forums before, and not in a good way.

Ok Pete cheers,

Car is not far from me and I have seen it before but at the time the guy wanted silly money for it, he still does and I will be surprised if it sells.
I have stuck a bid in and would go to 3k but that's about it. It does look a well put together unit but hey it's just a matter of when rather than if something fails lol.

Will wait and see what u can dig up.

I can't find any of the info I was looking for, but I would ask the seller what they know about the MG sport & racing vin plate, the cars original reg was FB04CVL registered in Nottingham.

This is the one I saw at Pride Of Longbridge earlier in the year. It was car of the day as far as I was concerned, and absolutely THE best ZS I've ever seen, bar none. Never knew about the Cat C though.

Another oddity with the interior, it has switches in the instrument surround which are then duplicated in the centre console, so is it a mk1 with a mk2 body kit ?.

Go and have a look at it Paul and see what's going on.

A few things would worry me, like an under drive pulley but still running a 7th injector.
