2003 MG ZT+ CDTi 135 – Cheap run around / workhorse

For sale is my daily driver/workhorse, it’s not a show winner or at a concourse standard but has proved to be reliable daily transport for the last two years. Give it a wash and polish and it looks presentable.

Its MOT’d until 28/06/19

I’m not going to pretend and say it’s in excellent condition, its 15 years old, has done 146k and it shows. It’s got a few scratches and scuffs, the worst being the rear bumper where my wife decided to ‘catch’ the garage with it.

Although, mechanically it’s absolutely spot on, in the last two years apart from the normal servicing and MOT’s it’s had: -

Two track rod ends
A rear wheel bearing / ABS sensor
New front droplinks
Engine mount
A detachable witter towbar
New exhaust backbox
New front shock absorbers
MAF sensor and Ron Box
Fuel / air / pcv / pollen filters

No warning lights on the dash, and drives really well, no knocks or bangs etc.

Only selling as I have to get something newer to pacify works car allowance rules (Max of six years old!)

Good bits are: -
It drives really well, pick up is fantastic since the new MAF and Ronbox
No warning lights on the dash
Both keys - remote works on one
Uses no oil or water
It’s never, ever let me down

Bad bits are: -
Air conditioning doesn’t blow cold (poss re-gas?)
Interior is tatty, but functional
Scuff on NS rear bumper/wing
Wheels need refurbishing as a couple of the tyres need air now and again
Was recorded as a 'Cat D' when it was a few years old, apparently due to a smashed rear window!

Ideal workhorse, it drives beautifully and has just done a 200+ mile trip to Manchester Airport (I’d drive it anywhere!)

Private plate not included and will be removed prior to sale.

I’m after £600.
