Mac
I wish you all the best in finding one. I found mine relatively easily, but then its a Ztt so many more. According to MGR build records there were 16 built, 10 Connoisseur SE and 6 Contemporary SE, so not alot. Of those DVLA list 14 as either SORN or taxed so not many lost along the way but still very very rare. And i though mine being a Ztt was unusual. Cheers Bean |

After 4 months of phone calls, photos, letters from our MOT tester confirming the VIN was genuine, etc., they eventually agreed it was a tourer....

And if you just happen to own a 75 V8 tourer with a knackered cooling fan, and you are interested, I've attached the wiring diagrams.
It would appear that any petrol fan will fit, with the gateway ecu doing the control stuff Brian |

No doubt with any large database there are loads and loads of errors and my source (howmanyleft) operates on the basis of incomplete anonymised data sets sets update a handful of times per year and i only every look out of general interest. But wherther 14 or 16 is accurate as a guide all the numbers say exactly the same, very very rare. Cheers Bean |

The one I made a key for on Friday was this one here.....

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