Default Written Off ZT-T V8 on eBay (Gravesend, Kent)

Spotted this on eBay.

Got 0 bids (even at £0.99!) and ended unsold... up again, but doubt it'll get any attention.

Unfortunately probably not repairable, but if you were local you'd make a killing breaking it...

The damage doesn't look too bad, but finding some of those parts would probably be a nightmare.

If i had money to burn I would be very tempted. It is one of my dream cars after all...

Slight deviation from topic: is that an original interior in the back - looks a bit german-esque?

It says damaged repaired by me. So does that mean it's been repaired
or not?

I read it as it was a Cat C repaired then had its current accident. Looks like he's got it on a chassis puller at the moment.

It was actually a Cat B car which was repaired and given the identity of a Cat C CDTI . The car was then crashed again and the pictures show its current state. The seller told me that he hit a low wall which ripped out the front sub-frame and damaged the sump.

I don't think that this picture of the interior shows a ZT-T - it appears to be of a saloon and possibly not an MG at all??

Ah yes, on closed inspection you can see a C-Pillar thats a lot curvier than one fitted to a ZT saloon... and obviously it's far too close to be from an estate
