Default One Simple Question

Well, no 'I don't care' option this time, what is your preference?

Rover 75 or MG ZT?

75 for me, the ZT appeals sometimes, and I do get tempted, but as I only have space for one car, I cannot buy another. Much to the happiness of the better half.

I prefer the softer suspension and less engine noise from the 75 over the ZT too.

But if I was going to buy an MG, it would be a facelift ZS with the 180 bodykit, mmmmm fish gills!

You forgot to mention that it should also be a saloon

i currently have both, but the zt wins for me! it suits me more.
i like the 75s, but the zt is just that bit more modern looking, and drives with a purpose rather than just cruising along!

ZT.

In a 75 your brake going into corners, in a ZT you accelerate!!

Having had both I prefer the sportier ride of the ZT.

Three exist I believe, genuine prototype cars made by Rover under Honda. Obviously they never went ahead.

That's very interesting. Would look tasty with a facelift kit on it.

I put 75 because that's what I own.
If however the car had been a ZT I would have bought that.

Having not found this Forum before buying I may have bought something different but saying that I do like the Rover, it's a nice car.

I do like the prototype, does it have a Honda engine?
