That V8 is a gorgeous car, but I'm not sure someone will pay that for it.
The second looks like the back end has been photoshopped out or something, an Austin princess back end

I bought an unregistered MG ZR from them and found that their 'sale price' was non-negotiable, apart from items such as floor mats and a full tank of fuel.

I somehow don't think they are that negotiable on the price of these delivery mileage cars as they have had them for sale since 2005, some longer than this, and they still have them. I am guessing they have personal finance tied up in them so what to recoup it. You might get a thousand pounds knocked off at best. Also, given the age of these cars and the fact they have been standing idle for a while would suggest that some potential re-commissioning of hoses, belts, tyres, fluids and batteries will be in order, beyond a simple pre-delivery service.

That said, I cannot fault the quality of the service they offer or how well presented their cars are. When I went to their showroom in 2006 I was amazed at the selection of cars on show and how well everything was presented. I really felt that I had knocked on the door of Rover heaven. Then I realised that there were no sales brochures available or other people in the showroom or looking around the used cars on their large forecourt. I then came back to earth with a bang and realised that MG Rover Group had finally gone.

When SMG were on Feeder Road in Bristol it really did look like a museum.
I like some of the ex-demo cars they have for sale too, delivery miles 54 reg's. Still commanding top money.

This bunch has been discussed before a few times, but I think their prices are lunacy, they obviously dont need to sell them and probably wont unless they become rare in a classic car sort of a way.

It is not like they have something really unusual or very high spec cars with monogram options etc...

Blimey, the second pic looks like a Hatchback !!!

Yep, SMG have been discussed here many times before & their prices are a little optimistic to say the least.

They do have a fair old collection on the forecourt.

I've seen the V8 in the showroom, nice car but when I saw it, a fair amount of dust on it.

Dust? DUST!!! Well that knocks £10k off straight away in my book

Read down the whole list of adverts Re 75s, He has to be on waccy baccy.
I know 75 and ZT prices are a bit strange but I think he's unrealistic.
