ZT190+ in Solar Red **SOLD**

Boot Hill Bandit · 15th December 2010, 09:11

Hi all..........my gorgeous ZT is up for sale due to a change in circumstances with the baby......namely.......the damn pram takes up ALL the boot space and we struggle to do any shopping 'safely'. Getting a bit sick and tired of worrying about a tin of beans going through the windscreen or worse if you know what I mean.

Just want to assure you all that I as a moderator will not be going anywhere. This is possibly one of the best clubs and forums I have belonged to and a proud member of.

I am currently looking at getting a ZTT........if anyone has one and doesn't mind popping over for a cuppa and a 'dummy run' to see how much room there is it would be much appreciated!

Clicky to my car

Hi Jim,

Good luck with the sale although not really the best time of year.

One suggestion though would be that it is cheaper to buy a smaller pram or travel system than the cost to change the car. Particularly since you know the car and it's history.

Just a thought mate.

Yeah a good point Derek. We did already buy a compact travel system 'Hauck Manhatten' but she outgrew the car seat part already so now we are using the incredibly long seat now which only fits in the saloon boot 'Front to Back' and not 'Left to Right' in the boot area.

Really could do with seeing someones Tourer. Think I should put up a post in the main forum or am I being too cheeky???

No, not at all cheeky. This is the sort of thing the club can be great for. Bound to be a member with a Tourer nearby. Might as well ask.

Bidding ended as some moron has scraped the rear bumper badly and not left a note.........hope someone does the same to them although I doubt they would care since they must have some damage too surely?

Gutted and annoyed.........gonna cost a small fortune to get that fixed now!

Found a very low mileage 190 in Bucks if that is any good?

24,000 miles on the clock on an 03 Mk 1 ZT-T 190+ for £3,490.

Or, howabout this 2004 facelift on 65,000 miles in Firefrost. Cam belt changed at 63k.

£3995.

All opinions welcome?
