Default So many 75s & ZTs

I have read some posts where people are saying R75/ZTs are as rare as hens teeth, well here in the Greater Manchester / Lancashire / Cheshire area there are abundant in number, so much so that I don't have time to make a note of all the registrations. In future I will carry my tape recorder and record what I see.

Not rare at all. Loads on the roads as far as I'm concerned.

I saw my first silver MK2 ZT for over a year today driving through Bristol. Did see an ignition blue MK2 tourer a couple of weeks ago.. Very rare cars even in the popular silver colour.. Lots of Rover 75's, and a few MK1 ZT's around these parts though!!

Will have to try to make one of the meets some time. I would also like to see your red alcantara seats. Never seen them that colour in the flesh so to say! What lovely cars we own
