75ZT Community

Hi everyone,

Thought I’d introduce myself and my car now I’ve joined the forum.

I’ve inherited a 2.0 CDTi Rover 75 Tourer which, at some point in its life, was converted by a previous owner to look and apparently run more like an MG ZT-T. It has the MG bodywork, badges, wheels and various other ZT-T parts, but I’m still trying to work out exactly what was changed and which parts are original 75 and which have been upgraded or replaced.

I’ve recently started recommissioning it after it had been sitting for a while. Quite a bit has already been done mechanically, with plenty more to come. Once I get it home, the plan is to properly investigate the car from front to back, deal with the rust, and work out exactly what I’ve actually ended up with.

Longer term I want to build it into a solid, dependable ZT-T-style road car with a bit of a rally-road/adventure feel, while keeping it practical enough to take the dogs out exploring.

So I’m here to learn, ask plenty of questions, and hopefully uncover exactly what this particular 75/ZT-T conversion consists of.

Cheers,
Rich

Hi Rich.
Well the engine would still be the same if it's contemporary 75 most likely 131 or may have had the 160 upgrade? doubt anyone would go to the trouble of changing all the suspension as the contemporary more or less has the same as a ZT-T so most likely just badges and bumpers lights etc stick up some photo of the outside and inside for us.

I believe it has ztt suspension components and a upgraded in tank fuel pump (under bonet pump isn’t there)
