Buying a V8 advise
Thinking about buying a V8 ZT looks to be an amazing car . i guess it makes a good long distance cruiser . could be expensive if I bought a poor example , I know in TVR world there is "TVR man" a specialist to check out TVR's . Is there anybody out there for V6 or V8 MG's? I read the post on insurance but looks like its possible for around £400-£500 ? Any other advise on buying one? Thanks Paul
