Another one to save?

See there's a another one to save on the Bay?

Going to be used as a track day car, strange use of a rare car though?

Hopefully it will get saved and returned to use?

Looks like could be a cheap way into v8 ownership. I hope someone is able to save it.

Very checkered history this one!

Not worth the money even with the mileage

I assume we are talking about this one: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2005-MG-ZT...item2c634d1723

I was considering making an offer on this, but think this one will just be a never ending money pit..

Looks like it's being broken for spares now as this is at the bottom of the listing:

On 24-Feb-12 at 15:34:00 GMT, seller added the following information:
CAR IS NOW BEING BROKEN SO NO LONGER AVAILABLE AS A COMPLETE CAR.

This car is the James Dean of 260's lived fast died young. Was written off twice, the last known owner to us was a 260 member who wrapped it around a post doing doughnuts round a traffic island one morning.

I am not sure it was vandalism before that, but it had seen life that car.
