I've owned a very early 190 ZT for three years now, it has been fitted with a torque chip, induction kit & twin stainless exhaust making it look like the V8. This only added about 6BHP to its power... more

    MG IN THE MORNING, MG IN THE NIGHT… MG BABY, BABY… MG WHEN YOU HOLD ME TIGHT! Why do Rovers have a pipe and slippers image? Post 1995 cars have been quite sporty to drive and whilst not cutting edge nor design icons they deserved a bit more credit than they were given. Then of course Rover got in a spot of trouble and we had the whole BMW fiasco, but I won’t go into that. Since then standard Rovers have been pretty good (especially the Rover 75 which is the car the MG ZT is based upon), if not class leading. MG for those who don’t know is part of Rover, at least in a working relationship… I’m ... more

    Advantages Advantages Looks, interior, build quality, cost

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Tyre wear extraterrestrial, reliability, economy

    What is it with this car? From the moment I saw the Rover 75, I felt underwhelmed. It was as if its BMW influenced designers wanted to perpetuate a stereotype of thatched cottages, bowler hats and afternoon tea, then built a car that had all of it. Vaunted as the most beautiful car ever built - and it wasn't. In fact, it wasn't anything in particular - lots of "OK" aspects but nothing to send a shiver down my spine, or to warm my heart. It was just - there. And yet, I bought a MGZT 160+. And I bought it new, in black. The difference from its immediate ancestor was sparkling. From top to toe ... more

    5 Stars MG ZT - Top Car Not Top Price 11/07/2005
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Loads of Car for Very Little Money - Handles Like a Dream

    Disadvantages Disadvantages The are not making any at the moment

    WOW is the only word I can think of to describe my new MG ZT. I have the 2.5v 6 160bhp 2002 model and what a car it is. Even with the fact that MG and Rover have gone POP I would still recommend anyone to buy this car - if fact now is the best time to buy this car with the deals that are available. Background I have been a Hyundai girl through and through for the past 10 years. I have owned 4 different ones myself, my partner has one, my son has one and my father had one. I never thought anything would pull me away from them. However, I was looking around for something slightly bigger than my ... more

    5 Stars Buy ZT 190 for long term reliability 15/06/2008
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Reasonable running costs, looks different to anything else, performance, reliability

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Ride comfort, some servicing costs

    I've owned a very early 190 ZT for three years now, it has been fitted with a torque chip, induction kit & twin stainless exhaust making it look like the V8. This only added about 6BHP to its power output according to the rolling road but torque is incredible, first gear is no longer used unless I need super quick acceleration. Despite the cars incredible weight it will fly from the lights, pins you back into your seat and suprises the boy racers in their flimsy plastic hairdryers on wheels. Reliability is amazing, other than servicing items it has cost me nothing yet. Like most modern V6 ... more

    4 Stars MG ZT 23/12/2004
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages superb

    Disadvantages Disadvantages tyres cost a fortune

    I have never had a car that has attracted so much attention. It is a real stunner as far as looks go. Our local doctor was pretty upset that his new Mercedes was virtually ignored by the locals whereas my MG attracted quite a crowd. The interior is a refreshing change from the doom and gloom of the Germans and just oozes class and style. Seats hold you very snugly - which is just as well as I just love throwing it around corners - and yet are remarkably comfortable on long journeys. bought this car after having owned two 3 Series as I wanted something a bit different and I have not been ... more

    Is there a common fault with the leather on the drivers seat splitting on the side by the drivers door?

    My car went for a garage service and when I went to pick it up, it had two splits in the leather on the drivers seat.`I pointed it out before leaving the premises. I followed up twice with the garage who eventually told me that their enquiries had revealed that splitting in the leather on the drivers seat was a 'common fault on Rover driver seats'.
