MG ZT 260 SE (also known as the Rover 75 V8 260) Renowned for its Mustang V8 Powertrain and unique engineering earning it cult status and rarity enhance appeal. PRODUCTION PERIOD: Sept 2003 and discontinued in May 2005. Out of 883 units assembled there are only 31 left surviving today (50% licensed and 50% SORN) KEY FEATURES: re-engineered from front-wheel drive MG ZT to a rear wheel-drive layout with a Ford 2004 sourced 4.6 litre V8 engine (from the Mustang GT) making it a "standout" "Q-car" (a high performance car with understated looks). A cult classic for enthusiasts of V8 muscle cars. Naturally aspirated, cast iron block, alloy cylinder heads, single overhead cam per bank, 2 valves per cylinder. The SE was the top spec trim for the ZT 260. Brakes: 325mm ventilated discs with 2 piston floating callipers. Wheels & Tyres: 18" alloys (225/45/18). AND BONUS is the private MG05 ZTR registration is included in the sale! TRANSMISSION: 5-speed manual Tremec gearbox (notchy with long throw). Rear wheel drive with a Dana Hydratrak limited-slip differential. DRIVING EXPERIENCE & PERFORMANCE: 0-60mph in 6.2 secs / 80-120mph in 4.4 secs Top speed: 155mph. A raw, thrilling drive with no traction control, heavy torque and a chassis that rewards skilled drivers - capable of dramatic oversteer moments! Raucous, engaging, impressive chassis. HISTORY: Full Service History Oil changes carried out every 2-3000 miles Only 49,780 miles. I bought it as Cat S in 2024 (but it only had near-side front wing, light bumper and bottom wishbone damage. There was no chassis damage at all). I arranged for all repair work including a new wishbone, to bring it up to the high standard classic car it is today. It was so immaculate, I exhibited it at the prestigious 'Collectively Camberley Car Show' this August and received a lot of enthusiasm and interest. (See attached photos) REVIEWS: A "lusty rumble" and chassis balance, calling it "an entirely different animal" from standard ZTs. SHOULD YOU DRIVE/OWN ONE? Absolutely - if you're after a unique driving experience with a rare V8. Ideal for enthusiasts who appreciate old-school torque and chassis dynamics. It's thirstier than modern cars but offers a thrilling throwback to the early 2000s motoring madness!
