Default Production volumes

I've searched on the forums but I cannot find the production volume statistics for the 75. By year by type etc. I'm also interested in export volumes, in particular Australia. Any information available?

Only 27,000 MG ZT's ever produced?!

Wow, I had no idea they were that rare! See plenty on here. Mind you, not so many on the roads, now know why.

Its sad, but thats part of why im attracted to ZT ownership. I like rarity, i dont like seeing 5 identical cars to mine every day. Its one reason id never buy a BMW or VW, you see about 10 black or silver ones that look identical every 5 minutes. Boring, conformist, impersonal.

The DVLA figures for 2009 are the last we have, thanks to member Reebmit.

On the roads of Britain.





Obviously a lot less 75's and ZT's in 2012

It looks like the working survival rate of the ZT is better than the 75 when you compare the difference between numbers produced and numbers remaining. Thanks for sharing.

47% of 75 registered are still on the road compared to 74% of ZT registered.

Thank you.



No. 16 of only 52 Nocturne Blue 75/ZT ever produced. ONLY TEN of these were ZT 190+
