Somebody who likes something a bit different.
What do your friends / family / neighbours think of the car?
My kids think it's brilliant and my friends and family can't believe I got so much car for only £3k.

Definitely. I've had Mondeos, Lagunas, other Rovers and Vauxhalls in the past but the ZT beats them all. A great British sports saloon that is sadly no longer produced.

Would really consider the 2.5 V6 model.

Big performance saloon that looks great and really shifts as soon as the turbo kicks in.

"Walk you me headlamps" are very useful late at night, warning light to tell you when any buld has blownand rear parking sensors are also very nifty.
