Its a very early V8 coming off the production line during October 2003. I don't have any negative notes on the car. Infact don't have many notes at all.

I believe it belongs to a memeber on the TWO-SIXTIES called tezzy (Terry). He seems to have bought it in Oct 2005 with just 4800 miles on the clock. Beforehand it seems it was a press car featured on MGOC website. I also think there is a deal to be done regards the price if your serious

I would concur with that, it's back on it's original plate, it was T3 ZZY ( or similar),

it seems to be being sold by Montys of Penarth - perhaps they did a deal and bought it from him?

It looks a very tidy car. Also its Birmingham registered and has 'MG Rover Group' Number Plates so the person that said it was a press car is most likely right.

You could be right but I think they may just be advertising it on his behalf. he was on the TWO-SIXTIES very recently posting it for sale and directing everyone to the photos on Pistonheads.
I know alot of dealers who will sell a car on an owners behalf for a percentage of the sale.
