Anyone owned or have owned a 260 or V8?

[Jerry]

Just wondering if there's been any owners on the board!

[Ralph]

I've got 2 Rover P6s that have Buick V8s in, but I guess that's not what you wanted!

Have you really - fantastic cars. The S or Manuals?

Need to set up so Galleries for these type of cars!

They are both 3500Ss - V8 manuals. Unfortunately, both are off the road at the moment (and have been for some years). I own too many cars!

In that there is no doubt! ;) Hope you get one one the road soon - are they in a bad way? Manuals were much rarer than 3500S, let me guess Tobacco Leaf and White? :D

Monza Red and Mexico Brown. The Monza Red one would be fairly easy to get back on the road. The Mexico Brown one is a lost cause, I fear. Needs too much welding work.

BTW there were two versions of the 3500s. The original one was for the US market only and is the Mark I automatic with 3 bonnet scoops. The ones that I have are the UK variants, which are Mark II with manual gearboxes.

We've had 5 different ZT260s through our workshop since we opened last July!

The S is the manual.

Great cars. Years ahead of the competition. What went wrong!

I haven't owned 1 but have had the opportunity of driving the ZT320 that was a managers or director of S'n'R. Went like "Hot Snot" and sounded awesome with the X-power exhausts. Can't beat the rumble of the trusty ole V8. :D

Scooter, I'm jealous as i'd love to own 1.

Just been trawling and tooling about on autotrader. Theres a 19K miles 260 ZT on a 54 plate but registered in 2005. MKII for 12K!

[Jerry]

There's a brand new one for £13k.

Just been berrated on XPF for saying that in the light of this a 3 year old 260 should be worth £6.5k tops as that is 50% of its value and in reality it'll be lucky to get 33%.
