The MG ZR (2001-05) ZR+ 3DR HATCHBACK 2.0 TD 100 is a three-door diesel hatchback with a sportier look than a conventional runabout. It occupies an affordable corner of the UK used-car market, suiting buyers who want compact dimensions and extra character without choosing a larger family car. Mycarcheck.com has recorded 84 checks covering 52 different cars, a useful sample for this older model. The average private-sale valuation is £700, with typical recorded mileage around 100,000 miles and about 6,000 miles driven yearly. With nearly six previous keepers on average, condition and service history deserve careful attention. Its 2.0-litre diesel suits commuting and longer journeys, while the three-door layout is best for singles, couples or households rather than passengers needing frequent rear-seat access. The ZR+ brings a youthful, more purposeful feel than ordinary hatchbacks, offering an appealing alternative to rivals when a lively, budget-conscious used car is the priority.
