Thought id share some pics of my ZS, very happy with it and alot of car for ?1450! My background is classic minis and hot hatches mainly and im very impressed with how it handles and how composed it is for a larger car.

Alloys arent great, anyone up north able to lend me some while i get these refurbed?

Just fitted some blue MG badges as the old ones had faded and had no colour, suprised by the quality of them considering theyre off ebay. Didnt fit perfectly but look great now there on

Best colour by far!
Unusual to see a 180 with the small spoiler, have a spare set of hairpins you could borrow (am in Crewe so not exactly local though)

Nice one mate. Reminds me of what mine was like when I first bought it +5 years ago. Mine had the low level spoiler on, the 1st owner, the one before me, worked for SMC and didn't like the extreme one so opted for the no cost option of the low one. Back then the mk1 180 had the extreme spoiler as standard but you could ask for the smaller one if the big one was not to your liking.

Nah, in all honesty if i was gonna fit em back on i would get them refurbed, although they aren't bad, not after selling 'em though, they are the original wheels for me car.

I won a piper exhaust on ebay for a steal, not sure if its from someone off the forum. anyway very happy with it, not too intrusive and sounds awesome when you give it some beanz, luckily i know someone with a ramp so fitting only took half an hour.

Loving my 180 now.
