tHat looks like a great track project! and as its really a 45 doesn't matter if it gets binned! lol

That actually looks quite tidy and clean even for a R45.

this car was on ebay a couple of months ago and it was in newcastle. i have feeling that there is something not quite right with it, dunno why but i am sure when it was advertised last time it had summit wrong with it.

And if you want to be pedantic its a 400 not a 45 lol.

I always thought the 2.0t was the ideal engine for the ZS ....

Yeah I think the zs deserves 250bhp+ to be fair.

And there are some good conversions out there.

yeah it looks nice with all the zs bits on it, but its a modified '98 420. its worth that much tbh.

The ZS probably would have got the T16 but MG-R couldn't get it to meet the new emission regulations

not mine matey.
I had a blue 180 but ross owns that now.
My MGT username comes off my other car

This rover 420 isnt going to be anything like a 180. I wouldnt want to spend 1.5k You could get a proper 180 for that. Bet its not pushing 250 either!!

Yea , I cant see it putting out 250 BHP , not on standard injectors and ECU... still 200 with stump pulling torque would be a barrel of laughs... more so in a standard looking 400 tho with 1.6 auto badging lol :angel:

I have never thrashed a car. I have driven very fast but I dont do wheelspins for the hell of it.

To be honest I dont wheelspin any car..... but once the water and oil are up to temp I do like to give it a pasteing , conditions and traffic allowing

Yeah, so you dont rip the arse out of it in car parks doing handbrake turns?

Driving fast where conditions allow is totally different to being a chavtastichandbraketurninwheelspinninmofo :D

I wouldn't say its been thrashed personaly. Driven by a chav yea but its not like he's sitting on the rev limiter for ten mins doing full on burnouts and spinning round with maccies trays under the rear wheels.
