My Celestial Blue 180 Saloon

As with all my ZS's im gutted to be selling this, I've wanted one for a while and love this car but once again i have to many cars so one has to go.

Quite a special one this, Monogram celestial blue with monogram bits inside too. Was an MG-R Longbridge company car as new as stated in the service book. First service was also done at Longbridge.

Passed the mot first time yesterday with just an advisory on centre exhaust system is getting a bit ratty. Not leaking though. It still had a month left on the old MOT so its now MOT'd until August 2011

36k miles, low due to previous owner to the previous owner was in the Army and based in Iraq so sat on his drive unused for a while. One year it only did 10 miles between MOT's

13 Months MOT
Tax till Nov
36k miles
Part service history
Remote central locking
Electric mirrors
Electric windows X4
Aircon
CD Player
Front fogs
17" straights with 4 good branded (pirelli and michelin) tyres.

Engines runs really well, no rattling vis motors and still gets the "kick" at 3k revs. doesn't lose any oil or coolant. Engine is completly standard apart from an open cone induction kit which was already fitted when i bought the car.

Bodywork is very tidy. There is some age related marks here and there. and theres a dent on the drivers front wing round the side repeater area. Can just be seen in the pics. There is a silver stripe been put over the centre of the roof aswell. It is only viynl and can be removed. Its on the centre piece of the spoiler to but i think its looks good there. Rear windows are tinted. Again this was done by previous owner and can be removed.

Drives fine, no nasty knocks or clonks over the bumps drives in a straight line e.t.c.

Bad points, only a couple

As already mentioned there is a few little marks here and there.

Only other thing to mention is there is some wear on the steering wheel. Strange one this as every other MG-R with colour coded steering wheel i've seen is actually blue leather, where as this one seams to be just a standard black leather steering wheel thats had the bits painted blue and the paints worn off. As its black underneath.

Anyway looking for ?1550ono

Forgot to add its just had new thermostat and coolant temp switch aswell. These were both done to try and cure the temp guage problem which is still there. So must be faulty guage. It only ever moves a couple off mm above cold when driving. If your sitting on tick over it moves abit higer. Heaters blow warm though and the engine doesn't run on choke, flew through emissions too so im guessing fualty guage.
