The ZT-T 190 Arrives

MGStephen · 10th September 2010, 11:37

After a few months of searching for the right car for my gramps, this turned up. 04 plate and its done 57k. Got full service history, belts etc have been done. Got lovely alcantara interior and the intellegence pack! Its near enough perfect condition aswell. And it was a bargain! Picked it up in sheffield and drove home beautifully. I took over from Carlisle and drove it up 77 miles. Definately different from my 1.6 ZS! i love the way it drove so much, im selling my ZS and getting a ZT-T 120, if i can find a good one!

And one with the 75

Beautiful example. They look great in silver minus the roof rails IMO. Pure RS4 old school style!

Allegroboi · 10th September 2010, 17:54

Looks very good indeed

It looks lovely Stephen! And the 11 Spoke Alloys!

Hi Stephen,

Great to see another join the ZT-T fold - would you consider a diesel tourer - you'd probably find (prepares to be shot by 1.8 owners) that you'd get better torque from the diesel in your search for a 120 zt-t

Lovely looking motor !

Insurance would be the issue with a 2.0 Diesel. Being 18 im sure it will cripple me.

Not neccesarily... I insured my Diesel with Aviva for £1,250 with a years no claims / pass plus.

From memory the 1.8T was also £5 less to insure than the diesel, and the 75 1.8 N/A was "only" £100 less to insure a year. I'll gladly swap £100 for a year for oodles more torque and 15 more BHP...

MGStephen · 10th September 2010, 23:16

quickly done some there on go compare etc.... 120 is £4000 and a diesel is £6500!

Jakg · 10th September 2010, 23:31

Go Compare etc = Useless for young people.

Go to each insurance company direct...

EDIT - To point out the £1,250 quote was last year when I was 18...

Will do aviva tomorrow
