General Information

This vehicle was the 25,896th 75 Tourer to run off the production line, out of 27,407
This vehicle was the 7th 75 Tourer V8 Connoisseur SE to be made out of 10
This vehicle was the 3,759th 75 Tourer in Starlight Silver (code: MBB) to be made out of 4,100 Starlight Silver 75 Tourers

I was offered it for sale if I were interested, and for a fleeting moment I thought about the fact I miss having a tourer for carting rubbish down to the tip, especially as according to the owner who has plenty of experience of ZT 260 told me it doesn't suffer from the god awful transmission lash of the manual cars.

In the end though, I doubt I could live it down, and it was finished in my least favourite colour of Starlight Primertallic
