Just got this link from the Australian site - it is the CDTi launch release - and it confirms the MG ZT 260's were available in manual and auto - and seven (or nine) were delivered as autos. Scroll halfway down.

Nope, it was an engineering vehicle, initially registered with MGR Engineering in Longbridge. It was built as an MG but was used as a development vehicle for the then-upcoming Rover 75 V8.
