ZT facelift time line - info please

Rupert · 26th August 2009, 07:50

My facelift ZT was first registered in March 2004 at Longbridge (I bought it 12 months later at the time of the company's demise when it had 3,600 miles on the clock). I recently spotted an '04 pre-facelift ZT and got to wondering exactly when the transition first took place. Can anybody enlighten me please?

The MK2's seemed to appear late 2003 for release 2004, but earliest I have personally seen is 2004.
A short life cycle really before going bust.
There was plenty of MK1's still around (the latest registration being 2008

)

I'm sure Reebs or others will be along with exact dates.

I think the transition was at 321,630. My previous 2004 pre-facelift Tourer was 321552. Anyone nearer the transition point?

The MK2's were launched in April 2004 IIRC

Yep April 04 launch, but there was still plenty of MK1 models still in dealers at that time.

End of production was April 05, so MK2 had just a 12 month production run!!
