My lovely MG ZR. Has been managed by a well known and respected local MG specialist. Runs incredibly well, sounds amazing, goes like s*** off a shovel. Plus it's one of the last genuinely British cars.

Full professional valet before handover

This obviously is a silly car but it is great fun

Just embrace it.

Upgraded sound system and head unit (bluetooth, hands free etc), door well lighting (front and back) and lit gear knob, fitting trophy blue theme throughout interior, sport seats, 17 inch alloys, gloriously ridiculous decals all over, full size spare and toolkit

Upgraded exhaust, injectors, sparks, ignition, think it's had a stage 1 remap

Really nice crackle when coming down from 3k+ revs, knocks you back in your seat when you put your foot down on a downshift

Surprisingly practical, decent fuel economy, (amazingly), loads of room inside for passengers and in the boot

Admittedly, I parked it round the corner for a recent job interview to avoid being seen, but most of the time who cares it stands out so much. This is clearly a driver's car and something totally different
Much better and much more fun than just another Hyundai nothing, vauxhall blurgh or Audi A whatever.

It's really something keeping pace with and often beating cars 20 years newer and 35+ times the price.

Interior is a nice place to be. Very comfortable, great visibility, everything where it should be and sensibly located with proper tactile switches and dials

Headline is sagging but I'm 6'4 and have several inches of headroom still and I'll throw in a can of spray adhesive if it's something that bothers you, I just never got round to having a go at it.

I'm selling it because I lost my no claims and now can't justify insuring it. Was going to keep it SORN and just have it for country road driving but it'll be a while before I can insure 2 cars...
Got an MG F convertible now anyway

Any questions I'll answer asap and lots more pictures available on request. Will do a proper walk round video and update the ad soon

£1575.

Surely, to keep history on the road and have a big smile on your face every mile is a bargain. At any price, frankly considering known upgrades, reliability, performance, relatively low mileage and service history,
£1575 is a no brainer

Seriously, have a viewing. Drive it. Check it. Try it. Experience it. See if you don't smile.
