Im after a good condition Mk2 ZS, budget is whatever it needs to be offer me a price and we can work something out!

It must have:

the full 180 kit
full service history
half decent MOT
prefer if it had tax
must be in tip top condition, no bodge jobs or dustbin size exhausts
low mileage
and hopefully no naff matrix interior (I like alacantra)

prefer black, xpower grey. no green or navy

(not asking too much)

:)

thanks

Hi there, here is a nice one, but not the colour you have asked

Not sure if the belts have been done though? :)

Nice car but don't like 'red', definitely prefer the saloon though.
Looks good.

I wouldnt worry about the cost of the belts on a 110/120. All in with a new water pump you would have change from ?150. Thats not a main stealer price of coarse.

Its the 180 belts that are the big-un

If you shop around you will find minters for far less money. I would deffo hold out for a 120 over a 110 but neither are a patch on a well tuned diesel, just something to consider :D

Get to the back of the queue ..... :shoot2: ..... They do come up at breakers now and then, but they are quite rare to be honest. ;)

nothing wrong with a 1.6 Especially with an LPG conversion

250 miles of ?20 of fuel cant be bad
