Nothing wrong with that car mate.  My dad used to own the petrol 2.5 v6 version.  It was an awesome little car, tonnes of power and great handling (for a car the size of the moon) as well!

For those who think I'm mad/an idiot then I did do a huge amount of research before choosing to buy one of these. The BMW lump is well known to be reliable and is chain driven so no pesky cambelts to worry about. The 75/ZT still comes in the top 5 of customer ownership surveys despite it being out of production for years. They're cheap to run and insure. Because of the fear of MG products you end up getting a very good car for considerably less than you could the equivalent Audi/VW etc. Finally it can pull 1600KG so ideal for pulling the golf on a trailer.

excelent choice sir, massivly underated car. people alaways forget about the bmw engines and uber cheap these days!

Looks like it's been well looked after.  Nice find...

However I can't help but think it's not a trailer your need, I'd say a caravan would be more fitting. Have you also got the required driving gloves and pipe that are essential for driving these?

I think you're mistaking my MG with true sporting heritage for a Rover 75.

In fairness the subframes on these are solid mounted unlike the 75's and they also have 75% stiffer suspension with a small drop. They do drive very differently from the standard 75.
