Congratulations to Robert Dover, winner of the 2003 MG ZT 260 V8
Winner: Robert Dover
Ticket No: 4242
The Live Draw for this competition was held on Tuesday 15th October 2024.
The 2003 MG ZT SE 260 V8 was an attention-grabber within MG Rover’s ZT range, as it was a performance-oriented saloon featuring a potent 4.6-litre V8 engine. This was very different from the rest of the ZT lineup, most of which were front-wheel drive with smaller, less powerful engines. The rear-wheel-drive configuration, paired with the V8, gives the ZT 260 a muscle-car-like personality while still maintaining MG’s British charm.
The engine in our ZT 260 is the same as you’d find in a Ford Mustang of the same era. It delivers 260 bhp and a very impressive 410 Nm of torque, making it one of the most powerful saloons MG Rover ever produced.
As our ZT is the SE version, it includes some of the premium features of the model including leather upholstery and climate control.
Though praised for its driving dynamics, the MG ZT 260 V8 was produced in limited numbers with under 900 V8 versions being made. This makes our MG ZT something of a rarity.
Since being in the Bridge Classic Cars workshop, it has been repainted, had new front brake pads and discs, and a new clutch.
