My beloved ZT 190 stolen today from the Denham area near Uxbridge. Trophy Blue.
Should you see it dumped or even on the road give me or the cops a shout! Thanks!

Very upsetting and sad - how did they take her - on a trailer ?

Really sorry to read this, indeed very upsetting. I whish you all the best in this and I hope the people who did this will be caught. I will look on the Dutch and German websites. There must be camera's in the surrounding that filmed. Good luck!!

That's not something you want to wake up to, you have my sympathies. It's hard to miss so l'll keep my eyes open.

I would imagine it was lifted as they're a bit difficult to take for a joyride but there are still plenty being broken so why take it for spares?
I never really worry about mine overmuch as they're well protected & l tend to think, who would nick it anyway?

Mind you, l think the MG's might have a bit more of a cachè than the Rover's among certain demographics and these days with cars being stripped of panels & spares where they're parked overnight who knows what the skroats are after at any given time.

I hope this goes well for you, it's worrying that these cars can now be a target for the scum.

WOW,You must be feeling absolutely gutted at the moment.I will keep my eyes peeled for it.
There's lots of members here from up and down the country who will always take a second look when they see a ZT/75 (especially a stunning one like that).
Hopefully it will get spotted by one of us and report it straight back to you.

And there was me all happy and cheerful as mine passed MOT today 15/07/23
Sure took the wind out of my sails. A reality check. Sorry to hear and read about you misfortune. Wish you well with a good outcome.

It may be the start of a worrying trend - normally they are just after the original Cats - puzzling as to what they are up to - remember the yellow tourer stolen in the summer - the only common factor beside the Cat is both cars unusual/in good fettle
