Hi Julien

To put a link in your post, try this:

On the webpage you are viewing, go to the address bar at the very top (where you see http or https) & at the very end of the text in that box, left click once with the mouse.

This will highlight all the text (usually Grey)

Now, anywhere on that highlighted text, click the right mouse button once & scroll to Copy, then left click once.

Go to the post you want to put the link in & right click once then scroll to Paste, left click once.

That's it, your link should be there !

Blue one - Low spec but belts have been done (check that tensioner was done too) price wise a little over the odds imo

red one - poor advert but a good price for a derv tourer, be mindful of the cracked bumper and any unseen damage.


Both adverts are very poorly written and both need deeper investigation

Neither particularly strike me as exceptional.
The Trophy Blue 190 looks to have been far better kept, but when it says cambelt, I'd want to know if the two other belts had been done too, particularly at that price. Very cheap tyres too. Condition-wise, it does look nice though.
The Solar Red one looks like a slightly neglected example, with the cracked bumper doing it no favours. Lack of ATC is a pity, but it does have the intelligence pack. Peculiar spec.

These are examples that I'd give some consideration.
This one, with a long-term enthusiast owner, sounds like it could be well worth a look. Says full history, so I'm not sure if it's needing cambelts or not. A lot cheaper than the 190 you were considering, and it has Xenons.

This is potentially a bit dear, if the belts are needing done, but, the thinking man's ZT with LPG. Better economy than a diesel, without the tractor sound effects.

This diesel particularly caught my eye. Very nice spec, with powerfolds, highline nav, electric, heated seats, walnut dash, and a very rare walnut wheel. Very very good price for a diesel auto. Think it'd be my choice, price-wise.

two poverty spec cars. The blue one is way overpriced and the red one looks like its been driven into the ground. I wouldn't waste my money on them (if I had any).

mnnnn bit of a perspective- i just bought a 53 plate MG ZT 2.0 CDTi with 54k on the clock for £2,5k. went to see it 1st time and was very impressed with the condition of the car. interior was spotless, exterior a few age related marks but nothing to worry about

it didnt have a current MOT but all previous MOT's. the last service was done at 49k miles. so i got the garage to do an MOT and an engine service. MOT required one rear spring which was done before the sale was completed and front OS tyre was down to 1.6mm, there were a few niggly things eg rear window switch was missing, cost £9 for a replacement, the badges were faded so replaced them too, got 2 new front tyres done for £145.

am taking it in to an MG specialsit on friday for a look over, 2 new suspension bushe , new sump plug, fix a bolt on the front undertray and a check on clutch servo cylinder ( which is ok but just want an expert to check)

all in all i think i got a decent deal.
