Hi Rob and Chris. I was at pride of Longbridge last weekend and I can tell you that these cars have a bigger following than you might imagine. The values bottomed out a while ago and they are on the up, especially for a ZR as nice as that. I know you sell cars cheap but I would do some research, and don’t be guided too much for what the R25 sells for at the auction as they aren’t as popular.

Hi guys, that MG ZR is a year younger than my Rover 25, same size engine as mine and my daughter researched them, there were only 795 of my model built for the british market with only 84 left roadworthy. I bought mine in the middle of January with just under 79,000 on the clock, she now has 83,000 on the clock as she is my daily drive and I have got her booked into two local shows as a modern classic🥰 very pleased with her and considering she was supposed to be a stop gap I think she will be staying longer. Her name is Ruby the pocket rocket 😊

Bit harsh on the old Rover cars there Rob! I've had a few over the years (Metros, 213S and 620) and they didn't suffer any worse from dings and dents than other cars I've had. The metros did like to rust obviously 🤣but they did also self-repair sometimes! Nice to see this MG on the channel, nice budget boy racer motor

That's a cracking little car for £1,000 to £1500, I ran a 220SDi as our family car and so long as you gave it a regular hoofing it ran like clockwork. We used it to tow a 13' caravan which it did very well. The only downsides were no air conditioning and the sunroof did impinge on headroom for me at 6'2" but apart from that, no problems.

Had 2 of these brand new, 1st one bits of bodywork started falling off when i went on the motorway. I bought the small alloy trim that went around the bumper where the tailpipe exited the bumper. The rover dealer charged me £4 for it. It was standard on the 1.8 ZR but not on the 1.4 ZR. Was a lovely drive as all Rovers were. I had it for about 18 months and got rid of it for a Subaru Impreza WRX. After the Impreza nearly bankrupted me, I traded it in for another MG ZR 1.4. I went back into the Rover dealer parts dept for the little alloy trim for the bumper...it seems they got wise and must of saw potential in this popular little decal upgrade, because they wanted £27 for it this time! I'm pretty sure it wasn't even alloy and just plastic lol. But this deffo brings back memories

You can't even buy a decent electric scooter for that kind of money!

Be interesting to see if u could do what wheeler Dealers do, as like a side series of flipping, searching out decent well priced cars, do minimal making good then flip for a profit. Sell this one, purchase another, sell that one, purchase another and so on... Then after 4months or so see what that initial £100 has turned into. Don't need to do weekly videos, just a round up after the time period.

About six years ago, I bought a Volvo S70 (1999) T reg 2.5ltr with 93'000 on the clock. Two previous owners, and a very clean and tidy example - £120. Perhaps not everyone's dream car, but it drives like a dream. It needed about £250 in parts, and sailed through its MOT. I still have that car, and can see it outlasting me. Bargain cars are getting harder to find, but they are still out there, if you look. I missed a W reg Nissan Micra last year, but after standing three years, the owner decided to sell it. It needed a rear brake un-seizing, and it is back on the road too.

Brilliant little car for £100 :O My first car was from my Mum, a Citreon C3 Desire for £800....it had an engine oil leak and lasted about a year. Been without a car since which is such a shame, just can't afford one now :( miss those little trips out with the family. Such a steal at that price. I would say it's worth £1000-£2000, good mileage, no issues once sorted. It is a million times better than the first car I bought........basically bought a broken car for £800. So gutted.

If you have a big enough oven you can do cerakote at home. Blast thoroughly clean, soak in acetone for a while to make sure no traces of grease (I mostly use it on calipers, etc, and I have an old ammo crate full of acetone to soak things in - lid seals on so it doesn't evaporate and metal so the acetone doesn't eat it), spray with cerakote (using breathing mask) with a thin coat then bake. If you use a thick coat it can easily blister when baked. So I tend to do a coat, part bake at 100 degree for 15 minutes, then give it another coat while hanging it the other way up (to spot the bits I missed), then fully bake it to an hour or so at 150 degrees. Cerakote won't stick to cerakote, hence you need to make sure all the areas are covered before the full bake. Nice thing is that it is pretty much impervious to oil, petrol, brake fluid, etc.

That blue reminds me of an Alfa Romeo colour that they use at the moment - Misano blue. Very easy on the eye! Cracking bargain there. 👍

These ZR and ZS' are just 'on the turn' price wise . They're as cheap as they're ever going to be right now ! ..... That one is a nice clean little car and will fetch £800 to £1000 easily and be a right bargain at that ! .... I have a ZS 1.8 on a 02 plate , that also has 43k on it . Very much under rated cars ! Don't know why Chris is turning his nose up at it.....
