Buying Tips for the MG ZT / ZT-T

  • ✓Check the "Plenum" drains under the windscreen; if blocked, they flood the ECU, which is a terminal bill.
  • ✓On the CDTi, check the in-tank and under-bonnet fuel pumps; they are known failure points.
  • ✓Inspect the rear coil springs, as they are prone to snapping on UK roads.
