Most loved about your ZS

[Maxxed_Ross]

Following on from 'Biggest annoyance with your ZS', what do you really love about yours?

mine has to be:

1: the space in the boot, it's huuuuuge!

2: the torque, it just goes in any gear - and the noise is fantastic

3: digital heating controls. Makes the dash far more up market looking... and even better it works really well

4: that body kit... man it makes me smile every time :smart:

[Smokey]

Glad someone redressed the balance with this thread!
1. The control on the corners at speed
2. The massive boot space for all the shopping!
3. The fact that my boot DOESN'T down!
4. It still turns heads for a 3 year old car

This thread is a little more useful for expressing how I really feel:-

Speed for a 1.8 is terrific, its so much faster than the equivalent sized engines in fords & that.

Sound is wonderful, I have NO MODS & still people turn to look when you accelerate, which is nice considering I don't rag it.

Handles beautifully, you feel safe doing things at speed.

Side profile of the car is GREAT!

MPG is brilliant, I'm getting more than my old R25 1400 which is weird. (35-38mpg average)


Great colour range for all the ZEDS, I could honestly say I think the colour range is the best on the market atm ( shame it isn't too thick) , (( saw my first monogram other day hehe ))

I think the engines are mostly easy to work on, I do little jobs & then my Mechanic charges me pennies for big jobs, the Head gasket with oil rail was changed with cambelt oil/coolant/ auxillaries belts all for 250 pounds which I thought was really good. :mml:

Cornering ability
Sound when you hit about 3k
Torque in 3rd and 4th
Bodykit as standard - one of the main reasons i bought the car (along with the fact it's a V6)

[Southern Storm]

I feel guilty for starting the other thread now.
The looks. The kit makes me smile and the spoiler always draws admiring glances.
The V6 with the sound it makes and the torque available.
The modern-ish (hey i also own an 84 scirocco ok) feel but with the simplicity I like with older cars.
The fact that all my rover hating mates have said 'blimey quite nice that'.

Blasting away from traffic lights.......hearing that V6 (even with knackered plenum!!), toning up the x-power exhaust at 3k revs

Still very stylish & a real head turner

Changing down from 4th - 3rd at 55mph & hearing the popping noise from the back.............marvellous:)

Couldn't have expressed myself better! You got it in one dude.........I bloody love tunnels I do! :yes:

Roads with walls on both sides are just as good...

[Mat C]

The automatic climate control for 2 reasons :

1) it never ever mists up or gathers condensation.

2) Our cheap ZS's share a major dashboard component with a £390,000 supercar - the Pagani Zonda

[grimmy]

The vents on the wings they just look so cool

[Stevedx]

I just love it

[chriszs180]

I just love it

and so say all of us...........................
:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[bilco]

The roar and the kick in the you get from the V6 when you boot it

[weagie]

nothing else on the road looks quite like it.

[ian zs180]

handles great even at speed you feel confident throwing it about and that lovely v6 sounds great i,ve also gotta say build quality is quite good its no worse than my v6 vectra i had

[Leasky]

the noise

cai
2.5'' exhuast system
2.5'' decat


YASSS

[interceptor]

The sound of the V6
power (with a few mods) and handling
the looks
bootspace

[ZS180V6]

All of the above and the fact that I do not see many of them on the road - something a bit different to the norm !!

[arwilson80]

I agree. I've only seen 3 of them in NI so far... :)

[rbull51]

Fantastic around corners & with an x power pipe fitted sounds great through the rev range, especially when you let the revs drop to 1500rpm before stopping, gives a great popping sound!!!!

I want to get an induction kit aswell, does this make much difference in sound?

[Fez]

The thing I love about mine is just the handling. Its damn good for a standard car.

[mattie007]

Handling
Looks
Colour, Le Mans Green, Mmmmmmmmmmmm :beer:
Excellent mpg, averaged 45 over a recent 1k trip

Just an ace car!

[arwilson80]

I just remembered another....

That massive windscreenwash bottle. As i hate a dirty windscreen!

[The Phantom]

Size, power, looks, but most importantly handling.

No car I've ever driven has handled as well as that MK1.

[coreygraham180]

The best bits
1. The sound :yoji:
2. the blast off in first gear :super:
3. the space :rofl:
4. the smile in put on your face all the time :mml:

[stamford]

Everything.




And the fact that my wife can't drive it :laugh:

[affmabus]

can u all please tone down on the 2.5 v6 & climate control patter, because im getting jealous!!! anyway great looking cars, always turns heads! better looking than subarus by far!!! they arent common cars, it is rare to see our breed around! great handling, sounding and comfy bloody seats!! who here agrees????? yes god damn it this is more like it!!! im getting all excited, hold on til i calm down and think straight......yes....so many extras you would think we paid the price of the car for a second time to add them, overall a lot of car for discount prices!!! a poor mans jaguar!
THREE CHEERS FOR MGZS'S

[StevieA ZS120]

i love the mk1's understated looks and the look on folks faces when you pull away from them with ease,
the handling is bloody awesome and the stance looks really good with my 18s on
the noise the engine makes when giving it some and the great noise the xpower backbox makes

[affmabus]

where was your three cheers for ZS's???
